Honest Wage Songtext
von Penny and Sparrow

When you called, it was loud
I got angry
I was everything but sober
I said things that were ruthless
And I meant ′em
But you told me to come over
You say he's in town, and you′re crying
You're throwin' him one hell of a party
So I hang up and start shaking
Thinking, "You never threw one for me"
And I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you′re not always fair to me
Like I wish you would be
He′s the one who left home
And I'm the one who stayed
So I drove when I shouldn′t
But I'll make it; I′m feeling alright
You walk out, I'm a mess
You look perfect, I figured you might


Next thing I know
I′m exploding
And everything feels awful and wrong
And he's there right beside you
But the music inside is our song
And I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you're not always fair to me, no
Like I wish you would be
He′s the one who left home
I′m the one who stayed
And I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you're not always fair to me
Like I wish you would be
He′s the one who left home
And I'm the one who stayed
I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you′re not always fair to me
Like I wish you would be
He's the one who left home
I′m the one who stayed
And I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you're not always fair to me, no
Like I wish you would be
He's the one who left home
And I′m the one who stayed
And I wish it was easier to kiss you on the mouth
Like it is to work hard and earn an honest wage
But you′re not always fair to me
Like I wish you would be
He's the one who left home
And I′m the one who stayed
I just get so angry when
You say you love him so
I wanna be more like him
I wanna know there's hope
