Jamie gets home from work,
She's been teaching all day,
when it comes to homework
But there's a veggie lasagne
and do a little salad on the side
pours two glasses of juice
She hears her comin' up the stairs
And then Lily gets home from work
and it lights up the room
She's just back from the hospital
But she wasn't expecting this
In fact, the only thing that
I was knowing she'd be coming
Dancing around the kitchen
and for a moment we forget
about the worries of the world
it's been a really long day
count their blessings all the same
The rent in Brighton is n't cheap
because that's where they live
And that's all Jamie wanted
find a girl and fall in love
That's exactly how it happened
Love at first sight and the rest is history
to help pay for Lily's training
But they toughed it out together,
both scrimpin' and savin'
they're both fully qualified
she's working all the time
Dancing around the kitchen,
And for a moment we forget
about the worries of the world
it's been a really long day
count their blessings all the same
Well, teachers and nurses
are the fabric of society
And they deserve to be treated like royalty
So that's how they treat each other,
while the world goes crazy
while the world goes crazy
