Pick up my candles and dust them

I don’t know when the spirits get in

housework is done by nobody special

that’s the way it’s always been

Been working since I was a babe

I come home now and work for free

housework is done by nobody special

that’s the way it’s always been

I’m nobody special, nobody special

a washerwoman serving the cream

homemade confetti ready for them

playing with what they think of me

I’m nobody special, nobody special

seamstresses weaving our chains

no day off in a month of Novembers

busy making overalls for your gain

Dress up my candles and light them

I have a long long night ahead of me

housework is done by nobody special

that’s the way it’s always been

Been working before I was born

mother waiting on tables with me

housework is done by nobody special

that’s the way it’s always been

I’m nobody special, nobody special

waiting for some answers tonight

hoping somebody will hear me out

while the light keeps flickering, flickering
