Analysis of There Was a Time When I Cleaned For You
Oh how could we forget the years,
that I cleaned for you?
You know it was so important to me ,
to feel that you cared for me.
Oh how you proved you did not care,
when you had your holiday parties.
You may say ,what do you mean?
Well it is pretty clear to see,
you only wanted me here after the holiday bling.
Now since married into the family we sing a new tune.
Guess what this is one, that does not play that tune.
You may want to be socially correct ,but my life by
my heart connects.
