I Don’t Want Breakfast in Bed, Dear

No, I don’t want breakfast in bed, Dear,
And I’ll tell you the reason why... 
if I have to clean the sheets again,
It will surely make me cry. 

No, I don’t want an “indoor picnic”,
A T.V dinner on the settee..
Because who is the one who’ll vacuum the crumbs?!
Me!! It’s always me!!! 

I want you to take the baby, Dear, 
So I can get some sodding sleep 
Or offer to wash the dishes,
Or give the floors a sweep! 

Or offer to do the laundry,
And tidy your clothes away,
Or take the baby for a walk,
For an hour... or half a day! 

I want you to dust the cobwebs,
Pick toys up off the floor,
Let me have a bubble bath,
And promise that you’ll never snore! 

I don’t want flowers or chocolates,
Although roses are quite sweet.
I just want you to help me...

And I just need some sleep!!!
