Handy Man
I roll up my sleeves and embrace a brand new day
my hands obey the brain, in the rain
I hear her call but I'm not stopping
she says I'm gonna' carve my own coffin
but it's my fundamental instinct, it's my way to leave an imprint
showing my love through sweet completion, sweet completion.
To simplify my lady's labour and remain within her favour
to guarantee my lady's comfort, let her lead her life unhampered
glory in the home, glory in the marriage handy man and home mechanic
glory in the home, glory in the marriage I'm a handy man, that's my dynamic
our home is snugly warm or pleasantly cool
at the mere turn of a knob and according to the season
when she uses them knobs I lose all reason.
A folding horse for her finer garments, a handy shelf for the storage of parchments,
not to mention the crazy paving that I'm still laying
I know that idle ways are sinful that is why I've had a skinful
it's a message from my great grandfather, something I just hold in my genes
you'll only reap just what you sew, that is what my mum once said
I'll skin the bark right off a tree I'm the king of husbandry
glory in the home, glory in the marriage handy man and home mechanic
glory in the home, glory in the marriage I'm a handy man, that's my dynamic
all for the view of sweet completion...
