Suburban Dream

It's pretty lonely being a wife I dream I'll take this people mover Across the border and drive Stand at a bar and order a beer But I'm just a lady and they'll forget I'm even here So I buy weed just for kicks And sell it to rich, white women with kids Take the pills that are meant for my son Gonna clean the house till morning comes It's still not enough Seven days in a suburban dream Seven days just wishing I was seen The kids are fed and the floors are clean Seven days in a suburban dream When we make love its cut and dry And it's done before the baby cries You used to make me feel obscene Now its just necessity There's not enough gin and the shops aren't open I'm too drunk to drive and im too old to keep smoking We said come 30 we would quit Was it the cigarettes or a premonition I don't know anymore Seven days in a suburban dream Seven days just wishing I was seen My feet are cold and I'm feeling mean Seven days in a suburban dream Now I don't need you to make me fine I just need three minutes of your time And someone's always crying And your mum thinks it's such a shame That I ever took your name But is she to blame? Seven days in a suburban dream Seven days just wishing I was seen I wanna run I wanna scream Seven days in a suburban dream Seven days in a suburban dream
