We washed the car by climbing on the top!
We hosed it (and each other) ‘til it shone
And Mom insisted it was time to stop.
Kitchen work was tasty, as a whole -
Need help to bake that cake, Mom? I’m your kid.
And whenever chance arose to lick the bowl
You bet your shiny Kitchen-Aid we did!
Even laundry was a kind of pleasure
When we put quarters into the machine -
Push them in - ka-chink - then at our leisure
Did bugger-all until the clothes were clean.
So, let’s return to how things used to be
And rescue grown-up chores from drudgery!
