Bribery

You're still mad at me,
But I'm not mad at you
I'm sleeping on the sofa,
What else am I to do?

I'll hurry to the flower shop,
Pick out a large bouquet
Dinner and wine by candlelight,
Will surely brighten your day

You're not mad at me,
Never was I mad at you
We're back in bed together,
It's love for me and you!
