That's Why They Change The Locks When You're Fired

lyrics

Single mom pulling double weight
Parental nights, engineering days
Honed and ingenious streak big-rig-turn wide
Keeps her boy entertained
Keeps herself fixed with a smile

She's learned a lesson,
She's turned a screw
Cuz she knows that's what you gotta do

When you're not living for one but you're living for two
Damned if I know
All a single mom's gotta do!

There's a downside of being creative
There's a downside of being right
There's a downside of being you
Instead of promotions you get fired

Needless to say she's smart,
A true life academic
She's put me in my place more times than i care to admit
She has fake boobs
Which aren't my thing
But I'll let that slip cuz after all....
They're boobs

There's a downside of being smart
There's a downside of being right
There's a downside of being you

And that's why
They change the locks
When you're fired
