lyrics

Rosie Sepulveda —music & Lyric: Matthew Levine

You slept through the alarm
Your home is a mess
and now the doorbell is ringing
And the kids are undressed
The dog is insane, he's a pain
Made a stain on the floor
Life is chore after chore

The babysitter called and can't make it
And you are late. Time is not on your side.
Life's a test and you cannot retake it
But you can get the break you need
That a helper can provide

Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda
She cooks and cleans
She's a one woman crew
Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda, 'cause
Rosie Sepulveda
Will take good care of you

Your boss is irate
Your work is sub par
He says deliver the goods
or no company car
Your job's on the line, not fine
Now it's nine and you're spent
But you must pay the rent

You've got the weight of the world on your shoulders
You're in a vice and your deadlines are due
You must answer to all the shareholders
But when it all comes to a head
And you don't know what to do

Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda
She'll fix your balance sheet
and buy you some time
Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda
No mountain she won't climb

She works so hard
Dreaming of getting her hands on a green card
She says her prayers
Life won't deject her
For She will protect her
The heav'nly Director of human affairs

Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda
She cooks and cleans
She's a one woman crew
Call Rosie Sepulveda
Rosie Sepulveda, cause
Rosie Sepulveda
She'll take good care of you
