"Calico" lyrics

The house was a good one
Though the yard was overgrown
And your shirts were all tailored
And my dresses were all calico

Orange and white always covered
The black pants you wore to work
It was part of the pattern
And it fit just like your shirts

Calico, calico, calico, calico
Calico, calico, calico, calico

We never used the spare room
I never sang in front of you
And through the thin walls
We'd hear our neighbors argue
Put up curtains
To shut out the light
I never let you
Have one last night

Calico, calico, calico, calico
Calico, calico, calico, calico
Calico, calico, calico, calico
Calico, calico, calico, calico

The house was a good one
Though the yard was overgrown
Your shirts were all tailored
My dresses were all calico
