Mob Wife - A Balladeer, Sarah Bettens

not long before this doom and gloom

we christened each and every room

in our own way we’re making nice

you shut your mouth and I close my eyes

it’s a big lie and it’s here in God’s sight

that I allow this reign

I’m a mob wife trying hard to stay sane

in a house of pain

the Good Book is put back on the shelf

I’ve given every trick in it a try myself

though a snowball stands a better chance in hell

we fool our friends and sometimes ourselves as well

it’s a big lie and it’s here in God’s sight

that I allow this reign

I’m a mob wife trying hard to stay sane

in a house of pain

I’ve forsaken what is right for what is easy
