"Clean The House" lyrics

"Clean The House"

I've never lit this many candles before
Or vacuumed behind my bedroom door
Mama, this girl's gonna make me clean the house
Who knew fan blades held so much dust?
Or that a kitchen sink could ever rust
I know it ain't like me, please stop freaking out

But she's coming over
And it's gotta be right
And I gotta make it look easy
It's been a long time now
Since you taught me how
Mama, this girl's gonna make me clean the house

I spent whiskey money on BetterHelp
For eighty dollars a week, it better help
And I put a content filter on my phone
I'm trying not to blame you and Dad
'Cause you're the best two parents that I ever had
Resentment only works when you live alone
But there are holes in my heart
That I got to patch up
'Cause last night she said she needs me
It's been a long time now
Since you taught me how
Mama, this girl's gonna make me clean the house

One man is like a truck, I've heard
Pulling away, drive straighter
Mama that's me and her
'Cause she ain't afraid of anything
Knows how to keep her own house clean
And she loves all the messy parts of me

So when you come visit
I'll turn down the guest bed
And treat you the way you raised me
I'm ready now
'Cause you taught me how
Mama, this girl's gonna make me clean the house

I think I'm gonna clean this house mm
