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's
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 doin' nothing urgent,
What I need's a temporary,
temporary secretary.
I need a, I need a
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 doin' nothing urgent,
What I need's a temporary,
temporary secretary.
Temporary, hoo, secretary

Temporary, hoo, secretary, ooh,
Temporary secretary,

Oh, temporary, ooh, secretary.
