lays

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'songs' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'play-school' is the wordplay.
'LAYS' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lays that I've seen before include "Produces an egg" , "Puts down - narrative poetry" , "Minstrel's melodies" , "Sets down the old songs" , "Puts down the old ballads" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
