letra de stay at home dad - benny davis (australia)

[verse 1: benny davis, cab driver]
got the day off work?
no, i’m a stay at home dad
so, you’re not working today?
no, i’m a stay at home dad
are you on paternity leave?
no, i’m a stay at home dad
do you take your baby to work?
no, i’m a stay at home dad

[verse 2: benny davis, cab driver]
where’s mummy today?
well, she is at work
oh, she has a part-time job?
no, it’s full-time (you jerk)
so, she’s making ends meet?
no, the ends meet just fine
ah, she’s earning her keep!
what, have i gone back in time?

[chorus 1: benny davis]
these dated assumptions
you make about me
show how brainwashed you are
by the patriarchy
’cause i’m a kept man
and that’s just fine by me
yеah, i’m my wife’s b-tch
and i’m happy to be
[verse 3: benny davis, onlooker]
aww, you’re changing nappiеs, how sweet of you!
well, she sh-ts her own pants, what do you expect me to do?
you feed her by hand and give the bottle, what a guy!
is it really that grand? if i don’t, she’ll die
aww, you take her to playgroup and hang out with the kids!
you know it doesn’t make it n0ble just ’cause your dad never did
you clean up her vomit, isn’t that a gross chore?
have you never had a pet? trust me, you love your kids more

[chorus 2: benny davis]
it’s a bit patronising
and s-xist to boot
to say the basics of parenting
are somehow “so cute!”
when they’re done by a man
you think it deserves more
than we ever gave mum
for the same things before

[verse 4: benny davis, cab driver]
so your wife is at work, and it’s definitely your wife?
wait, so being a dad makes me g-y?
how does that even- ah, what’s the point?
so your wife has to work, and she doesn’t mind?
having a child and a career
let me check, she’s just fine
so you cook?
yes
do laundry
yes
are you in some kind of cult?
no, i’ve done it for years
it’s called “being an adult”
so you don’t have a job? i still don’t understand
well, i’ll explain one more time
let me give you a hand
[pre-chorus: benny davis]
it’s 2019, at least somewhere it is
women can drive, they can vote
and have kids
my wife’s one of them
and she’s gainfully employed
so i have to field questions
i wish i could avoid

[chorus 3: benny davis]
i’m not fishing for praise
for being feminist
i’m just trying to stop cab drivers
being s-xist
’cause, for some reason
when they see me with a pram
they can’t fathom
why it’s being pushed by a man

[chorus 4: benny davis]
you don’t hand out awards
when this stuff’s done by mum
so don’t give me applause
for the bare minimum
i’m just doing my job
keeping my baby alive
so how ’bout you do yours?
shut the f-ck up and drive
