Homework

(albüm: Sarah Vaughan Sings Broadway: Great Songs From Hit Shows - 1958)

Homework
I wanna do homework
Instead of an office
I wanna work home
Staying
At home and crocheting
And meekly obeying
The guy who comes home

A cozy kitchen
To be in there pitching
That's the thing I'm longing to do
To be there learning
When a steak needs turning
And just what goes into a stew

Homework
I wanna do homework
A genius who sits and plans
With pots and pans at home
A genius who bakes a pie
That keeps a guy at home

A table wiper
Who can change a diaper
Is the thing I'd like to be best
And be the master
Of a mustard plaster
When the cold goes down to his chest

Homework
I wanna do homework
A genius who does her part
So he don't start to roam
A genius who earns her keep
That makes him sleep at home
