Lyrics

First you take the sheets off
Put them in the corner by the door
Then you turn the mattress
Don't hurt your back
Open all the windows
Let the curtains tumble in the air
Look inside the closet
See if he has left something there.

And I will clean my room.

Underneath the dresser
You will find a t-shirt
A picture of a rock band
Is on the back
Press it to your forehead
See if there's a scent that lingers there
Put it in the closet
So that he has left something there

And I will...

Shake out all the blankets
Put away the books and magazines
Throw out that old postcard
Don't read the back
Rearrange the pictures
Brush away the cobwebs on the wall
Do a little dusting
This really isn't very hard at all...

And I will...
