Secretary (lp Version)

It's very ordinary for the secretary

To take a man away from his wife

Girls, we make it necessary for the secretary

To put a little joy in his life

She takes the time to listen

To what he has to say

While all you do is nag him

A thousand times a day

Her hair is always pretty

And her clothes are always stylish

But you greet him with your hair in rollers

And that's outdated and so childish

Oh, it's very ordinary for the secretary

To take a man away from his wife

We make it necessary for the secretary

To put a little joy in his life

Are you there when he needs you?

Are your favors less than cute?

And when he tries to love you

Do you find something else to do?

Now the ordinary girl may not wear pearls

Or diamonds on each hand

Oh, but like the secretary, wooh

She knows how to please her man

Oh, it's not extraordinary for the secretary

To take a man away from his wife

You see, we make it necessary for the secretary

To put a little joy in his life, hey, hey

You see, life's a bowl of cherries

For all the secretaries, hey, hey

Oh, it's very ordinary, it's not extraordinary

Girls, don't be contrary or you'll make it necessary

Your life can be so merry just like the secretary

Life's a bowl of cherries
