Miss Marmelstein Paroles

Or "Honey Dear" or "Sweetie Pie"
Even my first name would be preferable
Though it's terrible, it might be better: it's Yetta!
Or perhaps my second name that's Tessye
Spells T-E-S-S-Y-E!
But no, no, it's always Miss Marmelstein!
You'd think at least Miss M. they could try...
Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!
Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!
Oh, I coul ddie!
I'm a very willing secretary
Enjoy my work as my employer will corroborate
except for one disappointment one fly in the ointment
It's great I mean simply great
But the aggravation of my situation
I might as well get it off my chest
It's the drum appellation
Oh pardon the big words I apply
But I was an English major at C.C.N.Y.
Drum appellation! Miss Marmelstein? Miss Marmelstein?
Other girls get called by their nick names right away
slightly naughty or riske
Do you know what I mean? Ha! Ha...Mmmmmmm!
Nobody calls me : "Koo-Chee-Koo" or "Boobala" or "Passion Pie"
Even "Hey There Babe!" thought not respectable
Ain't so objectable
It's kind of crummy but chummy
Of course if I got married, that would do it
So, where's the lucky guy? Ha...
Till then it still is Miss Marmelstein!
Everyday I get more and more fast
Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!
Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!
Oh...Oh...Oh...!
I could Bust!
