lyrics

I come in, 8am, Cheerios and milk again
Pack the bag, don’t forget, why aren’t you dressed yet?
Put your toys away, we’ve lots to do today

Ballet shoes, violin, sunblock to protect your skin
Spanish class, swimming too, activity is good for you
Hurry up, don’t be late, gotta get to that playdate
Take a breath, count to 10, tomorrow do it all again

I’m just a chauffeur, just a gofer, running here and there and everywhere
This job has a level of stress to which none can compare
I work so hard and invest all this time
And at the end of the day, they’re not mine
They’re not mine

12 o’clock, PBJ, same thing you have every day
Yell and cry, moan and whine, you must be hungry sometime
Broccoli is good, please just eat some food

Naptime now, afternoon, I really hope you’re tired soon
Piles of dishes in the sink, I’m so sick of the color pink
Chill out now, stop that fight, it’s not okay to hit or bite
This means a time out for you, and maybe I can take one too

I’m just a chauffeur, just a gofer, running here and there and everywhere
This job has a level of stress to which none can compare
I work so hard and invest all this time
And at the end of the day, they’re not mine
They’re not mine

It wouldn’t be fair of me to say I’d have it any other way
It’s a sacrifice, true, but I love what I do

Running on empty, mood is low, I try so hard not to let it show
Back is sore, eyes are red, I wish that I could call in dead
Hugs and kisses, jokes and fun, come on, let’s play in the sun
These tender souls look up to me and they bring out the best in me


I’m just a chauffeur, just a gofer, running here and there and everywhere
This job has a level of joy to which none can compare
I work so hard and invest all this time
And at the end of the day, they’re not mine
They’re not mine
