Amy Rigby - "Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?"

"Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?" is from Amy Rigby's 2003 album 'Til the Wheels Fall Off' and it is a great example of the sense of humour she brings to her songwriting. Quite often her songs are from the perspective of the struggling solo mother. This time she explores life from the opposite side... where it turned from x-rated to domesticated. Brilliant!

"Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?" Live

Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?

Lyrics to Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again? :
Life's become a great big list

Of things to do and buy and fix

At night we pass out before ten

Are we ever gonna have sex again?



I looked for your id today

Seemed that id had gone away

Ain't been used since who knows when

Are we ever gonna have sex again?



We used to be triple x rated

Look at us now, so domesticated



What happened to babe and stud?

Too much KFC and Bud

I shout it out into the wind

Are we ever gonna have sex again?



Come here baby, scratch my itch

Or I'll show you one mean ass bitch

I'm so tired of acting Zen

Are we ever gonna have sex again?



Screw making love

It's way too ambitious

Let's get down on the rug

After you finish the dishes



Not now hon, the eggs are frying

But you get extra points for trying

Maybe I can squeeze you in

Between the PTA and CNN

Are we ever gonna have sex again?
