Homework - The Andrews Sisters

Homework

I’m so tired of working in an office

And it’s making me blue

There is work that don’t require an office

That I’m anxious to do

Homework, I want to do homework

Instead of an office, I want to work home

Staying at home and crocheting

And meekly obeying

The guy who comes home

A cozy kitchen to be in there pitchin'

Is 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 want to 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

Homework, I want to do homework

Instead of an office, I want to work home

Patching his trousers and matching

The part that keeps scratching

The guy who comes 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 want to 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
