"I Wanna Play House" lyrics
"I Wanna Play House"
I see you getting set to play parcheesi
I definitely will not play parcheesi
Let's not be polite, let's not waste the night
I wanna play house
Are you suggested that we play canasta?
Well, honey, I don't wanna play canasta
Don't you understand? Must I show my hand?
I wanna play house
Will you kindly turn the picture off the television screen?
Put a long playing record on the record machine
When the lights are low you'll find there's nothing left to say
Then what kind of games you're gonna play
I see you looking at the crossword puzzle
There's better things to do than crossword puzzles
Cuddle up to me, honey, can't you see?
I wanna play house
What is that you say? Now you wanna play?
Okay, we're gonna play house
