Martyn Joseph - Working Mother lyrics

I catch the early shoppers train Leaves Leeds at half past eight With women who are Harrods bound From headscarfed Harrogate I change my clothes at Kings Cross From bland to vivid bait I'm a working mother earning jam for tea In a hotel called the Harlequin With carpets that are bald I offer several services At least that's what they're called But there's no real variation on a fifteen minute maul I'm a working mother hoping to get home Working mother under cover Another violent kiss Working mother pop-up lover Am I worth more than this? My husband drove his HGV Through France and Spain He'd always add 3 extra days So he could see Elaine They're now in Alicante Where it doesn't even rain I'm a working mother going home for tea My Alice is a princess Likes puppies, dolls and pink Wayne's three years older Wants his own ice skating rink One day they'll know By which time I could be dead from the drink They're my babies and they need an earning mother Working mother under cover Another violent kiss Working mother pop-up lover Am I worth more than this?
