Someone

Alone in this house
The place is a mess
I need to go out 
And find someone, I guess

I need to get someone 
This helplessness hurts 
Need someone to wash
And to iron my shirts

To clean all the windows
And vacuum and dust
Be able to cook
Is a definite must

Someone who’ll polish
And clean out the shower
Someone, who will charge
Less than five pounds an hour

Just get married. You don't have to pay her anything per hour, just everything you ever make.
