Model Citizen Lyrics - Warren Zevon

by Warren Zevon/Waddy Wachtel/Leroy P. Marinell 

c. 1991 Zevon Music/BMI 

Don't bring the milk in 

Leave it on the porch 

Don't read the papers 

Don't mow the lawn no more 

Drive to the market 

At the break of dawn 

Watch 'em unload the produce 

Then ride right back home 

It's the white man's burden 

And it weighs a ton 

I'm a family man 

Model citizen

Torment the mailman 

Terrorize the maid 

Try to teach 'em some manners 

Whip 'em into shape 

Down in the basement 

I've got a Craftsman lathe 

Show it to the children 

When they misbehave 

It's the white man's burden 

And it weighs a ton 

I'm a family man 

Model citizen 

I'm a law-abiding man 

I'm a good Samaritan 

I pay my taxes when I can

In the cool of the evening 

When the sun goes down 

My wife's playing canasta 

With everyone in town 

When I feel the pressure 

And I need a break 

Load up the Winnebago 

Drive it in the lake 

It's the white man's burden 

And it weighs a ton 

I'm a family man
