A Jump In the Hay

A Jump In the Hay
 

I needed you to be ready by nine
So I told you eight-thirty
I could light your pants on fire
And you’d still not be in a hurry
How long does it take?
To pick out a dress
We’re just going to dinner
Do you have to look your best?
Couldn’t you have ironed earlier?
Do you really have to change your purse?
Why do you need matching shoes?
Could it get any worse?
Finally you come down the stairs
Looking pretty good, I must say
Let’s just stay home
And jump in the hay
