Like A Chore Songtext
von Odd Beholder

Can you please just stop
I gotta dress you up
Please don′t cry today
Sugar, don't delay

It is a big cruel world
I hate to see you hurt
But now I′m off to work
Stop clinging to my shirt
My baby girl

Your tiny fingers curl
Around your teddy's fur
Can't tell you what it′s for
I fear that you feel like a chore
Now go back to bed
I think you heard what I said
Broken backs and wombs
Breast pumps in storage rooms


It is a big cruel world
I hate to see you hurt
But now I′m off to work
Stop clinging to my shirt
My baby girl
Your tiny fingers curl
Around your teddy's fur
Can′t tell you what it's for
I fear that you feel like a chore

You′re quick to lose your temper
When you are overwhelmed
And as a child
You just can't quite remember
If you were ever held

It is a big cruel world
I hate to see you hurt
But now I′m off to work
Stop clinging to my shirt
My baby girl
Your tiny fingers curl
Around your teddy's fur
Can't tell you what it′s for
I fear that you feel like a chore
It is a big cruel world
I hate to see you hurt
I hate to see you hurt
