Hey With Two Whys - Gender Roles

Oh Doctor, oh Doctor

Hurry up and give me the news

I’m coming down with something

And I know it, yeah yeah, I know it

I feel it in my chest, like it’s something

Like a wave of relief coming over me

Making my shoulders lower than they have been

Isn’t the air much clearer up here?

I need something else

It was you that said it was gonna get much better

It was you that said it was gonna be easier

Look at us now, aren’t we so proud?

On our way, you’re making fights out of nicely framed photographs

Oh Doctor, oh Doctor

Come look and see what we have here

We’re finally on our way, and yet there’s something

Yeah yeah, there’s something, that’s probably in my head

Telling me we left the passion behind, and I can’t seem to shake it

Like walking in a park without trees, it’s torn down for houses

And filled up to get with the wound-up divorcees

Isn’t the air much clearer up here?

I need something else

It was you that said it was gonna get much better

It was you that said it was gonna be easier

Look at us now, aren’t we so proud?

On our way, you’re making fights out of nicely framed photographs

You sit nice and quietly

On a dusty old mantelpiece

We used to spell it H-E-double Y

We used to spell it H-E-double Y, to fit in

We used to spell it H-E-double Y

We used to spell it H-E-double Y, to fit in

It was you that said it was gonna get much better

It was you that said it was gonna be easier

Look at us now, aren’t we so proud?

On our way, you’re making fights out of nicely framed photographs
