Lambchop

Lambchop - Prepared lyrics

She was standing by her mirror

Brushing out her curls and braids

That evening had arranged the night before

She noticed her pale cheeks

As were seen through haggard eyes

That suggested conversation in the morning

I have reached and scraped and borrowed

I have all but paid the price

As was ordered and was needed for the balance

Turning to her husband she so carefully said

My dear what put that idea in your head?

Voices cried in silence or crept stealthily away

Left shimmering with rigid lips compressed

To watch over him and prey

Bring him up the Christian way

And now what can I say that’s less profane

Maybe I was in his power

I didn’t mean to tell you this

Though I don’t intend to share them to their full

extent

If it’s sorry that we feel about it

Then with feeling I do respect

I am the most undisciplined of man

We are thrown out of our bedclothes

Instead of slumbering away

And a smile spreads like a sunbeam through your face

I am willing to bear my part

I’ve been hasty I’ve been surprised

And for this I’m only partially prepared
