I Won't Do Your Laundry

my hat's clean

Ever feel like throwing laundry in the trash? I felt this way many times when I lived in communal houses in my life. Oh, the piles of smelly underwear and socks that littered the floor, mounds of dirty dishes that cluttered the sink and the missing food in the fridge gave me the blues. There's no better incentive for me to write a song.

I really enjoy finger picking guitar and I start this song with some of my finest stuff. Lea debuts her humazoo talents with a spellbinding lead break and she sings the echo refrain brilliantly with Wendy. After the sweet intro it gets quite busy: reminiscent of a messy home where many slobs co-exist.

This song is not only about laundry...it's about refusal to be pushed around and being told what to do and how to do it. It is a protest song about freedom and breaking from the chains that bind me. Until next time, do the boogaloo and hoochie coochie to your heart's delight.

Sing along with the lyrics below:

Laundry

I won't do your laundry anymore

I won't do your laundry anymore

I've been doing all the laundry

Since you walked through the door

I won't do your laundry anymore

I won't be your hoochie coochie man

I won't be your hoochie coochie man

I'm a gonna tell you, baby

So you understand

I won't be your hoochie coochie man

I won't do your laundry anymore

I won't do your laundry anymore

I've been doing all the laundry

Since you walked through the door

I won't do your laundry anymore

I won't do the boogaloo for you

I won't do the boogaloo for you

If that's what you're waiting for

Go to Timbuktu

I won't do no boogaloo for you

I won't do your laundry anymore

I won't do your laundry anymore

I've been doing all the laundry

Since you walked through the door

I won't do your laundry

I won't do your laundry

I won't do your laundry anymore
