3TC – Mother-in-law

Swoop, paper, hamper

***

“Quick, dust the divan

Vacuum as fast as you can

They’re soon coming up the drive”

She ordered, as we acted like bees in a hive

“Swoop up the laundry

Stash in the hamper

I don’t care if some of it’s damper

Now sit in your chairs appearing relaxed

I know, the floors not waxed

Just put your feet up, read the paper

Try to relax and not get the vapors

You know she’ll bring her white gloves

To test the home of ones she supposedly loves?”
