Mr. Mom
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got a hug and kiss and that's too bad
She said I can go to work until you find another job
I thought I like the sound of that
Watch TV and take long naps
Go from a hard working dad to being Mr. Mom
Well
Crayons go up one drawer higher
Rewind Barney for the fifteenth time
Breakfast six, naps at nine
There's bubble gum in the baby's hair
Sweet potatoes in my lazy chair
Been crazy all day long and it's only Monday
Mr. Mom
Football, soccer and ballet
Squeeze in Scouts and PTA
And there's that shopping list she left
That's seven pages long
How much smoke can one stove make
The kids won't eat my charcoal cake
It's more than any man can take
Being Mr. Mom
Well
Pampers melt in a Maytag dryer
Crayons go up one drawer higher
Rewind Barney for the sixteenth time
Breakfast six, naps at nine
There's bubble gum in the baby's hair
Sweet potatoes in my lazy chair
Been crazy all day long and it's only Monday
Mr.Mom
Before I fall in bed tonight
If the dog didn't eat the classifieds
I'm gonna look just one more time
'Cause
Pampers melt in a Maytag dryer
Crayons go up one drawer higher
Rewind Barney for the eighteenth time
Breakfast six, naps at nine
There's bubble gum in the baby's hair
Sweet potatoes in my lazy chair
Been crazy all day long
Oh been crazy all day long and it's only Monday
Mr.Mom
Balancin' checkbooks, juggling bills
Thought there was nothing to it
Baby, now I know how you feel
What I don't know is how you do it
Honey, you're my hero

Lost my job, came home mad
I was frustrated after losing my job
Got a hug and kiss and that's too bad
Although I received affection, it didn't fix my situation
She said I can go to work until you find another job
My partner offered to work for the time being until I find employment
I thought I like the sound of that
The idea of being able to relax and not worry about work sounded enticing
Watch TV and take long naps
I can spend my days leisurely watching TV and napping
Go from a hard working dad to being Mr. Mom
I must transition from being a working father to a stay-at-home dad
Pampers melt in a Maytag dryer
Diapers disintegrate in the dryer
Crayons go up one drawer higher
Art supplies are moved out of children's reach
Rewind Barney for the fifteenth time
I have to replay the same TV show episode for the fifteenth time
Breakfast six, naps at nine
My schedule revolves around preparing breakfast at six and putting the kids to sleep for a nap at nine
There's bubble gum in the baby's hair
There is gum stuck in the baby's hair
Sweet potatoes in my lazy chair
Mashed sweet potatoes have spilled on my recliner
Been crazy all day long and it's only Monday
It has been a hectic and exhausting day and it's only the beginning of the week
Football, soccer and ballet
I have to shuttle the children to different extracurricular activities
Squeeze in Scouts and PTA
I have to also make room for attending Scouts meetings and Parent-Teacher Association events
And there's that shopping list she left that's seven pages long
My partner left a lengthy shopping list for me to complete
How much smoke can one stove make?
I am struggling to cook without burning everything
The kids won't eat my charcoal cake
The children are refusing to eat my burnt cake
It's more than any man can take being Mr. Mom
This situation is overwhelming and too much for any father to handle
Before I fall in bed tonight if the dog didn't eat the classifieds I'm gonna look just one more time
Before I go to bed, I have to search for job listings again if the dog didn't destroy them
Balancin' checkbooks, juggling bills
I have to manage finances and pay bills
Thought there was nothing to it
I used to think it was easy to manage finances and bills
Baby, now I know how you feel
Now I understand how difficult it must have been for my partner to manage finances and bills
What I don't know is how you do it
I am still amazed at how well my partner handled these responsibilities
Honey, you're my hero
I admire and appreciate my partner for all that she does
