Twin Tub Twin - King Creosote

Thought that I was doing good
I made her laugh a little woodenly
She said
You strike me as somebody
Whose four loads behind in the washing need a little wifey
Well I went home to draw the line
To cut to the chase counted it up
Well she was right
One in the twin tub two in the basket one
On the floor still waiting to be asked in
I met her again her laugh no less wooden
She varnished on a smile
Like something bad had just happened
In fact it had I found out much later
Now she was listening if not just slightly listing
I told her she was right twin tub
And basket two on the floor just waiting to be asked in
But I'd been busy worked out on a mangle
To my suprise she said you I could handle
Things sometimes work out
It all comes out in the wash
But if it don't then there's no harm done
