Python troble

[MBPFAN]

I'm learning Python IDLE. I'm trying to write a very simple text game. I'm one error away to have it working.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
items = ["Cup","Vase","Table","Lamp","Bowl","Door"]
(Bold is highlighted) All I want to do is create a list. Somebody please help.

Try a different name; maybe "items" is a reserved name?

Also, what is on the line above it? Many times, the context can help a lot.

The syntax of that line is fine. We need more details.
