Paul McCartney - Temporary Secretary lyrics

Mister Marks, can you find for me

Someone strong and sweet, fitting on my knee?

She can keep her job if she gets it wrong

Ah, but mister Marks, I won't need her long

All I need is help for a little while

We can take dictation and learn to smile

And a temporary secretary is what I need for to do the job

I need a

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Mister Marks, could you send her quick

'Cause my regular has been getting sick

I need a

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Mister Marks, I can pay her well

If she comes along and can stay a spell

I will promise now that I'll treat her right

And will rarely keep her 'til late at night

I need a

She can be a belly dancer, I don't need a true romancer

She can be a diplomat but I don't need a girl like that

She can be a neurosurgeon if she's doing nothing urgent

What I need's a temporary, temporary secretary

I need a, I need a

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Temporary secretary, temporary secretary

Now, mister Marks, when I send her back

Will you please make sure she stays on the right track?

"Well I know how hard it is for young girls these days

In the face of ev'rything to stay on the right track"

She can be a belly dancer, I don't need a true romancer

She can be a diplomat but I don't need a girl like that

She can be a neurosurgeon if she's doing nothing urgent

What I need is a temporary, temporary secretary

Temporary secretary...
