Third Letter Home (From "Song and Dance") Songtext

von Bernadette Peters

Mom, this letter is a quick one
Cause I'm working day and night now
If things keep going well, I'll be the female Calvin Klein
Dean's being a smashing friend, mom
Ducing me to buyers
People find my hats outrageous
Which, in New York, means they're fine
Now I never hear from Sheldon
But I read what he is up to
He's working on a musical
About as a boy
Mom I've never seen a drink here
That isn't full of ice cubes
And I've never met a waiter here
Who doesn't say "enjoy"
I have met a married man, mom
And I don't go up the deep end
It's just a bit of non sense
Oh, I've made that very clear
He's got four lovely children
Well, I've only seen their pictures
I never really miss him
But I like it when he's here
I know you won't approve, mom
I feel I must have someone
I know if dad could see me...
