Mary Chapin Carpenter - He Thinks He'll Keep Her

Mary Chapin Carpenter

He Thinks He'll Keep Her

She makes his coffee, she makes his bed
She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
When she was twenty-one she wore her mother's lace
She said "forever" with a smile upon her face
She does the car-pool, she PTAs
Doctors and dentists, she drives all day
When she was twenty-nine she delivered number three
And every Christmas card showed a perfect family
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
God forbid you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
She packs his suitcase, she sits and waits
With no expression upon her face
When she was thirty-six she met him at their door
She said I'm sorry, I don't love you anymore
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
God forbid you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
For fifteen years she had a job and not one raise in pay
Now she's in the typing pool at minimum wage
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
At least until you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her

Mirror lyrics:

At least until you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
Now she's in the typing pool at minimum wage
For fifteen years she had a job and not one raise in pay
God forbid you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
She said I'm sorry, I don't love you anymore
When she was thirty-six she met him at their door
With no expression upon her face
She packs his suitcase, she sits and waits
God forbid you change your mind. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything is so benign, safest place you'll ever find
Spit and polish till it shines. He thinks he'll keep her
Everything runs right on time, years of practice and design
And every Christmas card showed a perfect family
When she was twenty-nine she delivered number three
Doctors and dentists, she drives all day
She does the car-pool, she PTAs
She said "forever" with a smile upon her face
When she was twenty-one she wore her mother's lace
She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
She makes his coffee, she makes his bed
