Lyrics

Angel, answer my prayer Answer my prayer tonight Tell me if anyone cares If I do what I might Angel, answer my prayer And tell me if anyone else Knows how much I am scared That I might murder myself Who will take care of my plants? Maybe Martha will take care of them. She called on Mother's Day and has a philodendron and a few ferns. They look terrible though, just like her house! She never dusts her leaves! What about Berta? She's been married three times, how can she possibly take care of orchids!? They'll die--I just know these bugs will get them. Aphids--you have to watch for them all the time, they don't care... Sent Teddy $7.50 for his birthday last week, no thank-you note, It's all Martha's fault! She's not raising those children right! How long would it be until they noticed? A week, two weeks, maybe months! I know why, I know why they ignore me! Martha pretends that she doesn't care anymore, but I know better! And she's poisoned Berta against me too! He was old and could barely hop around, and Mark would sure never have done it! Poor thing, somebody had to do it! Somebody had to...
