Your Time Vs Her Time

Your time is spent 
Complaining about the neighbor 
She needed a job borrowed your paper
The one day your up before noon 
Musta been out of the ole Blue Moon
Her time was spent looking for a job
Did you know her husbands’ mind got robbed 
He’s not been right since the stroke 
Keep complaining bout your flat coke 
You time is spent complaining about service 
She’s trying to get blood out of her turnips
You complain about that 
You’ll complain about this 
If I didn’t tell you I’d be remiss 
Her daughter just lost her legs to cancer 
Her only dream in life was to be a dancer
Keep mumbling keep grumbling 
If the world would end today 
Oh, it’d be so so troubling
I could go and on for days 
Good for you 
It’s my time to pray
