To Dion’s (a la Runaround Sue) “Dream Lover”
I bet Dion’s mommy made him all those sweaters.
Dream Mother
Every night I hope and pray a dream mother will come and stay
A mom to do my all my chores so I can lay back and snore
Because I want, a mom, to take care of me
I want a dream mother, so I don’t have to be an adult
Dream mother, where are you?
This life is more than I can chew
I want your hand to hold
Like when I was a ten-year-old
Because I want, a mom, to pay my bills
I want a dream mother, so I don’t have to go to work
Some day, I don’t know when
I’m gonna be a kid again
So what about Thing One and Two?
Well, she can be their mom too
Because I want, a mom, to do my laundry
I want a dream mother, so I don’t have to wash undies
Dream mother, you aren’t real
How am I supposed to feel?
I can’t take care of me
Maybe I can get a nanny?
Because I want, a mom, to live my life
I want a dream mother, so I can finally take a nap
I’d settle for being independently wealthy so that I could just not go to work and spend my time doing fun things. And washing underwear.
Washing underwear is fun? I like the independently wealthy. Maybe I could try money laundering. Boooooo.
I’d settle for a dream chef. Sigh.
Oh, Chef Boyardee, take me awayyyy.
Ha, it’s been a while since I’ve had that stuff. A good thing, I’m sure!
Awww, thing#1 and thing#2 would so miss you. Who else would make a video of the favorite toys and post it?
I said she could be their mom too. 🙂
I’d also settle for being wealthy. And since I already have a washing machine, washing undies hasn’t been a problem. Drying them is, however, since some birds made a nest in our laundry exhaust, and that would require a dream ornithologist/repairman to fix.
