Happy Birthday Ma

from Radio Sketches The Third by Charles Jenkins

/

lyrics

My Mum just turned 88
She’s looks good she’s sounding great
She tells me what she’s been telling me every year of late
I share my birthday with Hitler

Her daughter took her to the Alma Hotel
Mum had Roast of the Day with Vegetables
Some Prosecco and some Pavlova as well
Good work Mum

Her granddaughter took her to Lucky Lapitas
A Mexican restaurant where Mum had her first Margarita
She said I left feeling there like I was a lucky little Senorita
Nice one Nana

My Mother just turned 88
She peers out from behind her curtains she locks the gate
She says You’re hard pressed to tell heaven from hell over here in Adelaide
How right you are, happy birthday Ma
