Mother-In-Law

 

She'll prattle like a rattle

Until the day she dies.

She is so nice to give advice;

The lady is so wise.

 

Chorus: Mother-in-law, Mother-in-law

How can I live with my Mother-in-law?

 

She tells me how to clean the house.

She tells me how to cook.

She tells me how to wash the clothes

And how we ought to look.

 

Chorus

 

She tells us of her do-good deeds.

She tells us of her work

And all the things she's done for us

Without a single perk.

 

Chorus

 

She acts as if I were a bum,

As lazy as a log.

I live in fear I'll have to hear

Another monologue.

 

Chorus--repeat fading out.
