The whole thing about anime is that it's filled with oft-repeated tropes and expressions. And one of them is the well-worn offer by a young wife to her husband: Would you like to have a bath, dinner or me? Of course, most of the time, it's played for laughs.
Strangely enough, that's what I'm reminded of when I listen to Keiko Saijo's（西城慶子）"Okaerinasai" (Welcome Home). A track from her 1981 album "Twilight Silence"（トゥワイライト・サイレンス）, it's written by Rei Nakanishi（なかにし礼）and composed by Kyohei Tsutsumi（筒美京平）. It's also quite the sultry and extended version of the multiple-choice question that I mentioned in the previous paragraph. Along with the let's-make-out arrangement, there is some added jazziness which isn't surprising since Saijo is a jazz chanteuse by profession.
