Ordinary mothers lead ordinary lives

Keep the house and sweep the parlor

Cook the meals and look exhausted

Ordinary mothers like ordinary wives

Fry the eggs and dry the sheets

And try to deal with facts mine acts

Darling I miss you a lot

But darling this has to be short

As mother is getting a plaque

From the Halsingborg Arts Council

Amateur Theatre Group

Whether it's funny or not

I'll give you a fuller report

The minute they carry me back

From the Halsingborg Arts Council

Amateur Theatre Group love you

Unpack the luggage la la la

Pack up the luggage la la la

Unpack the luggage la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Ice in the basin la la la

Cracks in the plaster la la la

Mice in the hallway la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Run for the carriage la la la

Wolf down the sandwich la la la

Which town is this one La la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Ordinary daughters ameliorate their lot

Use their charms and choose their futures

Breed their children heed their mothers

Ordinary daughters which mine I fear is not

Tend each asset spend it wisely

While it still endures mine tours

Mother forgive the delay

My schedule is driving me wild

But mother I really must run

I'm performing in Rottwig

And don't ask where is it please

How are you feeling today

And are you corrupting the child Don't

Mother the minute I'm done

With performing in Rottwig

I'll come for a visit and argue

Mayors with speeches la la la

Children with posies la la la

Half empty houses la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Cultural lunches la la la

Dead floral tributes la la la

Ancient admirers la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Unpack the luggage la la la

Pack up the luggage la la la

Unpack the luggage la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Mothers romantic la la la

Mothers misguided la la la

Mothers surviving la la la

Leading the glamorous life

Cracks in the plaster la la la

Youngish admirers la la la

Which one was that one La la la

Hi ho the glamorous life

Bring up the curtain la la la

Bring down the curtain la la la

Bring up the curtain la la la

Hi ho the glamorous life
