Housewife's Xanadu
No rules that obligate us
No missions we can't solve
Stationary roads ahead
Let sun and moon revolve
What happens to us, happens
Give it our biggest shot
Raining down on reigning us
More pennies in the slot
So what if skies are heavy
Accepting the sublime
We'll reason, judge, appreciate
While journeying our minds
