Sometimes in my elegant life
when I feel above the mundane wife
I'm quickly brought down to one knee
when I see the pile of dirty laundry.
The hamper feasts on all the clothes

to wash the dirty laundry.
If there is one thing I have learned to say,

I'll never really ever be free
as long as thereis dirty laundry.

While I did other chores that were a total snore.
But I took over his task.
Why, you ask?
