Oh, Lord, was that the alarm again, just give me a few minutes more
Didn't I just go to bed at midnight and now it's a quarter ‘til four
I think there is some laundry, the dog is scratching at the door
Oh, Lord, was that the alarm again, just give me a few minutes more

It's 5:15 and I am behind, the lunches are not packed
The cat got in the trash again, scratched me on my back
The kids aren't up, I'll take a break, and have a little snack
It's 5:15 and I am behind, the lunches are not packed

Look at that time, it's 6:45, where has the morning gone
The boys are up, the girls are fighting, hubby is on the phone
The paper never came today, sometimes I feel alone
Look at that time, it's 6:45, where has the morning gone

It's 7:30, the kids are gone, hubby just drove away
The cat is feed, the dog is out, time to start another day
Now where did I put my keys, maybe I could just stay
It's 7:30, the kids are gone, hubby just drove away

It's 9:00, now I'm at work, another meeting to attend
Papers all need filing, will this work never end
The phone just rang again, it's shoving me over the bend
It's 9:00, now I'm at work, another meeting to attend

Gosh! It's noon already, didn't the time just fly
Take Kenny to the dentist, stop at cleaners while passing by
Pick the reports up at the printers, stop at the doctor about my eye
Gosh! It's noon already, didn't the time just fly

5:00 - hmmm, now what's on the board to do
Oh, right, stop at the market, need meat for the stew
And there is that noise in the car, I think a tire blew
5:00 - hmmm, now what's on the board to do

Wow, 6:30 already! Dinner is nearly done
I'll do the ironing while it cooks, my idea of ‘fun'
I think there is a scout meeting tonight so I gotta run
Wow, 6:30 already! Dinner is nearly done

8:00, 8:00 - there is so much left to do
Great! Guess it is my turn tomorrow to take the kids to the zoo
My hands are tired, my back is sore, I've lost a pound or two
8:00, 8:00 - there is so much left to do

Ah yes, 10:30 now, the kids are all in bed
The dog is out, the cat is in, the paper has been read
Dishes are done, laundry finished, fish have all been fed
Ah yes, 10:30 now, the kids are all in bed

Blessed midnight, I love your smiling face
I've got everything lined up for tomorrow, all in it's place
Shoes are shined, cookies baked, the day can now erase
Blessed midnight, I love your smiling face

Oh, Lord, was that the alarm again, just give me a few minutes more.....
