When Will My Life Begin by Mandy Moore

Seven a.m., the usual (1)______________ lineup
Start on the chores and (2)__________ 'till the floor's all clean
Polish and wax, do laundry, and mop and (3)__________ up
Sweep again, and by (4)________ it's like 7:15

Pottery and ventriloquy, candle making
Then I'll stretch, maybe sketch, (9)________ a climb
Sew a dress!
And I'll (10)____________ the books
If I (11)________ time to spare
