Did I Shave My Legs For This?

(album: Did I Shave My Legs For This? - 1996)

Flowers and wine
is what I thought I would find,
when I came home from working tonight.
Well, now here I stand
over this frying pan,
and you want a cold one again.

I bought these new heels,
did my nails, had my hair done just right.
I thought this new dress was a sure bet
for romance tonight.
Well it's perfectly clear,
between the TV and beer,
I won't get so much as a kiss.
As I head for the door,
I turn around to be sure,
did I shave my legs for this?

Now when we first met,
you promised we'd get
a house on a hill with a pool.
Well, this trailer stays wet,
and we're swimming in debt.
Now you want me to go back to school.

I bought these new heels,
did my nails, had my hair done just right.
I thought this new dress was a sure bet
for romance tonight.
Well it's perfectly clear,
between the TV and beer,
I won't get so much as a kiss.
As I head for the door,
I turn around to be sure,
did I shave my legs for this?
Darling, did I shave my legs for this?
