Tea Bag Romeo - Marvin Rainwater

In every living room

There stands an idle groom

While all the housework goes to pot

We wonder what this rascal’s got

Who makes our faithful women simply swoon

As off to work we go, this much at least we’ll know

This lover’s just a tea bag Romeo

Though we’re a faithful group

We cannot live on soup

The stuff they buy, it’s such a savings

Only multiplies their cravings

Cracker, soup, and other goop

(Schmidt noodles)

Don’t underestimate his power

He can sell the leaning tower

I ought to know, I’ve got two tons of flour

Our lives he complicates, our wives he confiscates

And if we ever disagree on anything he says to be

We’ll find the cold potato on our plates

(Schmidt-aught noodles)

Don’t take offense at what a-we've done

The little song’s just in fun

For after all we love the sun-of-a-gun
