Tina’s Mother

Lyrics

(Phone rings ) [JUDY, spoken] I'll get it! [JUDY, sung] Hello! Yes, this is Tina's mother Hello, Mrs. Miller How's that? Tina brought you flowers from our garden Well she's so fond of you She likes your husband too Thank you for calling Goodbye! (Hangs up, phone rings, she answers) I'll get it! Hello Yes this is Tina's mother Hello, Mrs. Farmer How's that? Tina sang and danced for your blind mother? She loves to entertain Yes, she'll return her cane! Thank you for calling Goodbye! (Hangs up, phone rings, she answers) Tina's mother here Hi Mrs. Adams A party? I'll tell her she's invited (Hangs up, phone rings, she answers) Tina's mother here Oh, sorry Mrs. Adams! That's Saturday at four? Oh, I'm sure she'll be delighted Bye! I could have been an office girl A wizard at dictation Working 50 weeks a year Two weeks paid vacation I could have been a teacher Teaching one thing or another But I'm proud to be what I am ( Phone rings ) Tina's Mother! Hello Yes this is Tina's mother Hello, Pastor Peters What's that? Tina has a choir solo Sunday? Oh she just loves to sing And yes she loves to pray! She's good at everything I'm grateful every day Why everyone agrees she's positively heaven-sent My kid's the perfect eight-year-old Yes she's enthralling Thank you for calling Goodbye! ( Hangs up, doorbell chimes ) [JUDY, spoken] I'll get it! [Sylvia St. Croix, spoken] Mrs. Denmark? Mrs. Judy Denmark? [JUDY, spoken] Why yes I'm Judy I'm Judy Denmark Judy Denmark, that's my name, Judy Denmark [SYLVIA, spoken] Tina's mother? [JUDY, sung] That's me!
