I might bring you daffodils
And hand them to you on my bended knee uh-huh
I might put your apron on
And play the part you figured out for me
I could be your puppy dog that never learned
Just forget the times I got my fingers burn
I could wag my ragged tail for you
But baby don't hold your breath until I do
I could build the shade for you
So you could sit and watch your garden grow oh-oh
I could not be likely as you
Sip your tea and tell me where to go
I could light your cigarette and tip my hat
Your inflated ego needs a man like that
I could spend my whole life pleasing you
But baby don't hold your breath until I do
Baby don't hold your breath until I do
That's been tried by better girls than you
If you're expecting me to change my old ways for the new
Baby don't hold your breath until I do
I could build the path for you
And lay the carpet with my own two hands uh-huh
Rate the place with little bells
To make the servants jump at your command
I could start to march each time you beat your drum
To end up just another love beneath your thumb
Wouldn't that just thrill you through and through
Well baby don't hold your breath until I do
Baby don't hold your breath until I do...
Baby don't hold your breath until I do
How long can you hold your breath
