Artist/Band: XTC
Lyrics for Song: Earn Enough for us
Lyrics for Album: Upsy Daisy Assortment [1997]



I've been praying all the weeks through

At home, at work and on the bus

I've been praying, I can keep you

And to earn enough for us



I can take humiliation

And hurtful comments from the boss

I'm just praying by the weekend

I can earn enough for us



Found a house that won't repair itself

With its windows cracking

And a roof held together with holes



Just because we're on the bottom of the ladder

We shouldn't be sadder than others like us

Who have goals for the betterment of life

Glad that you want to be my wife but honest



I've been praying all the weeks through

At home at work and on the bus

I've been praying I can keep you

And to earn enough for us



So you're saying that we're going to be three

Now, a father's what I'll be, don't get me wrong

I'm so proud but the belt's already tight

I'll get another job at night but honest



I can take humiliation

And hurtful comments from the boss

I'm just praying by the weekend

I can earn enough for us



Just because we're on the bottom of the ladder

We shouldn't be sadder than others like us

Who have goals for the betterment of life

Glad that you want to be my wife but honest



I can take humiliation

And hurtful comments from the boss

I'm just praying by the weekend

I can earn enough for us, I can earn enough for us
