Petticoats and Pinafores there are some women here daughters of mothers mothers of daughters women who have cried… women of women of women of women... you think we keep score but more and more we know it's a man's game but not a man's world can't do with us, won't do without us stop the fuss control the muss quit the cuss no controlling us… because we know we don't want to take over we'd rather roll in clover…some of us… but sometimes you toss aside the marital ride the willful stride to walk the wild side cause chasms wide I could be talking only for one but I'd rather not be under your gun of right and wrong when in contemporary we could together sing a song that could bring us to our knees please in such a harmony we would be so beautiful I guess sometimes I am still in a moment and then still in petticoats and pinafores in my thinking and in this thinking …that there could be a life for we that man and woman would could should be harmony we are deeper than you in many ways you are stronger than us in some ways but the pain we bear is as real as yours…. sometimes, more so…. why do we outlive you? why do you leave us so soon? why do we promise you forever… when you shoot for the moon… sometimes, sometimes in petticoat and pinafore dreams I live in dreams of fine I live in dreams of mine in dreams of kind dreams of mind certainly dreams of rhyme I would rhyme with you walk in step keep the kept in deep then sleep aside of you wild the ride of you be the hide of you clue clue clue petticoats and pinafores travesties and paramours opened and then closed doors what did you expect? circumspect and then did I seek a new life once did I thought perspective was the clue look at me…but what did you? petticoats and pinafores…. wish I could wear them more and more wish I could be one of them then, but wishes and more won't bring you back through that door… guess that's why I wear slacks or jeans and sorts of running pants you've made me live in a man's world and feminine I'm not but funny how I find men still looking at my mind even when I turn around and they're looking at my……………… but… if you would let me love you like no one else could love you just if you would listen take in all my kissing you would not be missing me in dreamy, ivory creamy petticoats and pinafores 01.17.01 |
