Confused, chauvinist, insouciant, feckless, drinking too much, and never doing our share of the housework.
Jesse Winchester, Yankee Lady, circa 1970
She rose each morning and went off to work
And she kept me with her pay
I was making love all night
And playing guitar all day
And I got apple cider and homemade bread
That would make a man say grace
And clean linens on our bed
And a warm feet fire place
Superchunk, Driveway to Driveway, circa 1995
From stage to stage we flew
a drink in every hand
my hand on your heart had been replaced
and I thought it was you that I had chased
The National, Karen, circa 2006
Karen, put me in a chair, fuck me and make me a drink
I've lost direction, and I'm past my peak
I'm telling you this isn't me
No, this isn't me
Karen, believe me, you just haven't seen my good side yet
Yes, our good side yet.
