Cathy Songtext
von Bad Luck Pearl

Clean the cellar, block the draft
Dip the kerosene, clean the chimney shaft
Oil the hinges, oil the lock
Sweep the kitchen, grab the mop

Brave the smell and listen close
Knit an afghan, mend your clothes
Turn the payments, turn the chair
Keep the kerosene, in your care

And have you noticed how pretty she grows
Why, she′s almost beautiful
Maybe the key was melted
Maybe she was crying


Grab the apron, grab the jar
Grab the tools, reach the yard
Catch a pullet, free her head
Burn the apron, wipe the red

Step lightly, step outside
Notice flowers, spring's arrived
Fresh and pretty draw an eye
Through the city, shyly smile

And have you noticed how pretty she grows
Why, she′s almost beautiful
Maybe the key was melted
Maybe she was crying
And have you noticed how pretty she grows
Why, she's almost beautiful
Maybe the key was melted
Maybe she was crying
