Spring Song (Lyrics - Marriage and Family)

Spring has sprung
The time has come
When all the flowers bloom
And wives are calling husbands
To man the household broom.

He sits and stares
So unaware
The fate that waits for him;
When from the pantry entrance
Appears a sight so grim.

Chorus
It’s Spring-time!
Guess what that means!
It’s Spring-time!
You know what I need!

She’s standing there
With icy stare
And speaks with grating voice;
“A mop, a broom, a duster;
Now sweetheart, take your choice!”

His mouth, agape
But it’s too late,
There’s nothing he can do.
She says, “And when you’re finished
I want the screens done too.”

(Back to chorus)

“OK, my dear”,
He says, “I hear.
I’ll do it right away.
But sweetheart, when I’m finished
Can I play golf today?”

She says, “OK
You can go play
But I have never seen
A course with lighted fairways
Or one with lighted greens.”

(Back to chorus)
