about

My husband is amazing, ambitious, respected, smart, talented, loving, I could go on and on. Only thing about that is, where does that leave me?

lyrics

I know that you've worked hard to get there
and I've always believed in you
but now you're way up there
and i'm still nowhere

you say to buy whatever i want
but when i do i feel this shame
i guess i only have myself to blame

i don't need nothin and it feels so bad

don't come to me with your problems
i won't know how to solve them
i'm a lowly, good for nothin housewife

i do all i can but somehow
it seems like you do so much more
sometimes i wonder what i'm even good for

he promises the day will come when
i won't have to work at all
i guess i'll just be hangin at the mall

i don't need nothin and it feels so bad

don't come to me with your problems
i won't know how to solve them
i'm a lowly, good for nothin housewife
foodstamp days are over
i don't have to try hard anymore
so many credit cards which one's which
i look so dumb and rich

i don't need nothin and it feels so bad
cuz i don't do nothin for the things i have
when you don't do nothin then you're good for nothin
you're good for nothin
you're good for nothin

don't come to me with your problems
i won't know how to solve them
i'm a lowly, good for nothin
i'm a lowly, good for nothin
i'm a lowly, good for nothin housewife
