By Popular Demand: New Release by MommaDrool Mafia




I keep getting requests for a new release by the MommaDrool Mafia, and I admit, it has been a very long time.  I continue to joke that when I retire, I am going to write rap/hip-hop music.  Seriously, it would be awesome.  


Okay, so without further adieu, here is the new release.  Sometimes I just have to wait for inspiration to write these, and my messy house (that I can't seem to keep clean) gave me plenty.  The song that fueled my inspiration is "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye featuring Kimbra.  Enjoy!




The Clean House That I Used to Know

Now and then I think of when you were so spotless
Like when you looked like a house without ten kids
Told myself that it could stay this way
But then those kids made it all for them
But that was then and it's the clean I still remember

You can get accustomed to a certain kind of clutter
Like where to put all these drawings, always drawings
So when we found that there was no more room
Well you thought you’d make a pile there
But I'll admit that was a very bad idea

But you didn't have to throw your toys
Make out like it wasn’t clean and that you were playing
And I don't even want to dust
But you treat me like a housemaid and I feel so rough
No you didn't have to toss those clothes
Have to leave them on the floor and then say they’re dirty
I guess that I don't have the time
Now you're just the clean house that I used to know

Now you're just the clean house that I used to know
Now you're just the clean house that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you were so tidy
Part of me believing it would always stay just this way
But I don't wanna live this way
In a house that I cannot keep clean
I thought that I could let it go
And I wouldn't be so hung up on the clean house that I used to know

But you didn't have to throw your toys
Make out like it wasn’t clean and that you were playing
And I don't even want to dust
But you treat me like a housemaid and I feel so rough
No you didn't have to toss those clothes
Have to leave them on the floor and then say they’re dirty
I guess that I don't have the time
Now you're just the clean house that I used to know

The clean house
(I used to know)
The clean house
(Now you're just the clean house that I used to know)

(I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)
The clean house
