Lyrics
A Table for Two
I?ve been workin' too hard, playin' too little
The place is a junkyard; I?m stuck in the middle
My boss is an ass and I?m out of gas
And I?m barely makin' ends meet
You?ve been trapped in the house, baby food on your blouse
Picking up toys, boys will be boys
Bills are a-flowin', the way things are going
The day's turned to defeat
So how about tonight we get a sitter
'cause I ain't about to become a quitter
Chorus
Let?s order a table for two
To make us feel brand-new
As easy as one, two, three
All the experts agree
So come on and give me five
It?ll make us feel alive
We?ll only stay out 'till ten
'Cause tomorrow we gotta do it, we gotta do it, we gotta do it all over again
A table for two and a bottle of wine
The least we can do, this ain't no crime
Just grab your coat, the kids will be fine
We deserve nothing less
Tomorrow will pound, go go go
Up?s and down's like a yo-yo-yo
This fast paced life of man and wife
Has become a hell of a mess
So how about tonight we get a sitter
'Cause I ain't about to become a quitter
Chorus
Let?s order a table for two
To make us feel brand-new
As easy as one, two, three
All the experts agree
So come on and give me five
It?ll make us feel alive
We?ll only stay out 'till ten
'Cause tomorrow we gotta do it, we gotta do it, we gotta do it all over again
Chorus: Repeat
Let?s order a table for two
To make us feel brand-new
As easy as one, two, three
All the experts agree
So come on and give me five
It?ll make us feel alive
We?ll only stay out 'till ten
'Cause tomorrow we gotta do it, we gotta do it, we gotta do it all over again
Let?s slow down and order us a table for two
