[Joy:]
There are lots of games
With childish names,
And I know ev'ry one of them;
"Hunt the slipper" and "Blind man's buff,"
Well, they're jolly enough,
But for girls alone
I'm bound to own
I don't quite see the fun of them.
Games are just what a girl enjoys
If she plays 'em with boys!
[Girls:]
Games are all right
When there are plenty of boys.
[Joy:]
I like a game
That ends with a kiss:
My delight is sure to diminish
If there isn't a kiss at the finish.
Oh, girls, don't you think it bliss?
One or two or three or four
(Prudish girls may find it a bore,)
Others like to have a few more,
I don't mind if I go to a score!
I'm so fond of a kiss,
I'm so fond of a kiss!

[Joy:]
There is "Bridge," but oh!
That's deadly slow,
The rules are apt to muddle you;
No one chatters or speaks a word,
Not a sound can be heard.
When there's lots of noise
It gives the boys
A chance to squeeze and cuddle you.
Let's play any old rowdy thing.
Say like "Kiss in the Ring."
[Girls:]
It's not bad fun
Playing at "Kiss in the Ring!"

Oh, girls, don't you think it bliss?
Now and then I won't deny
P'r'aps the boys are rather too shy;
Still a girl should never say die,
Coax 'em hard into having a try!
I'm so fond of a kiss,
I'm so fond of a kiss!
