<br>

Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Oh, why is it always Miss Marmelstein?<br>

Miss Marmelstein? Miss Marmelstein?<br>

Other girls get called by their first names right away<br>

They get cozy intimate ... Do you know what I mean?<br>

Nobody calls me: "hey, baby doll!"<br>

Or "Honey Dear" or "Sweetie Pie"<br>

Even my first name would be preferable<br>

Though it's terrible, it might be better: it's Yetta!<br>

Or perhaps my second name that's Tessye<br>

Spells T-E-S-S-Y-E!<br>

But no, no, it's always Miss Marmelstein!<br>

You'd think at least Miss M. they could try...<br>

Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Oh, I could die!<br>

I'm a very willing secretary<br>

Enjoy my work as my employer will corroborate<br>

except for one disappointment one fly in the ointment<br>

It's great I mean simply great<br>

But the aggravation of my situation<br>

I might as well get it off my chest<br>

It's the drum appellation<br>

Oh pardon the big words I apply <br>

But I was an English major at C.C.N.Y.<br>

Drum appellation!<br>

Well, literally I am persistently addressed<br>

Persistently, perpetually, continually and inevitably addressed!<br>

Believe me, it could drive a person positively psychosomatic<br>

Why is it always Miss Marmelstein?<br>

Miss Marmelstein? Miss Marmelstein?<br>

Other girls get called by their nick names right away<br>

slightly naughty or riske<br>

Do you know what I mean? Ha! Ha...Mmmmmmm!<br>

Nobody calls me : "Koo-Chee-Koo" or "Boobala" or "Passion Pie"<br>

Even "Hey There Babe!" thought not respectable<br>

Ain't so objectable<br>

It's kind of crummy but chummy<br>

Of course if I got married, that would do it<br>

So, where's the lucky guy? Ha...<br>

Till then it still is Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Everyday I get more and more fast<br>

Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein! Miss Marmelstein!<br>

Oh...Oh...Oh...!<br>

I could Bust!<br>
