Lyrics

A match box of our own,

a fence of real chain link,

a grill out on the pa ti o, dis pos al in the sink,

a wash er and a dry ni er and an i ron ing ma chine

in a tract house that we share some where that’s green.

He rakes and trims the grass.

He loves to mow and weed.

I cook like Bet ty Crock er and I look like Don na Reed.

There’s plas tic on the fur ter ture and to keep it neat and clean

in the Pine Sol scent ed air some where that’s green.

He

Be tween our fro zen din ner and our bed time, nine fif teen,

we snug gle watch in’ Lu cy on our big, e nor mous twelve inch screen.

I’m

Far from Skid Row,

I dream we’ll go

some where that’s green.
