Lyrics
Father works all day and mother doesn't get paid
Everybody needs a father, for the child they prey
Father's up at dawn and gone till eleven
Mother's hours are 24/7
Child matures as the parents age
Together they grow like the daddy's wage
Father develops a nasty habit
Mother discovers, she just can't have it
Victimized stay-at-home wife
She won't have it this time
Business come, business go, low and behold, that business grows
Mother needs a lawyer she can't afford
Father swings the "I earned the money" sword
Father's got a lawyer, he's been in a court before
Child pains, he longs to ignore
And now to all you women chasing pockets deeper than their throats
It's on you that society plays its most karmatic joke
'Cause when you've finally turned half his age
Welcome to the trophy cage
