Lyrics
Mrs Forgetful
© 2008, Pamela Novikoff / Larry Killam
I pay tax with my money
Give clothes to the needy
Help out when I can
Don't like to be too greedy
So I made a mistake didn't call jury duty
If I go to jail if I don't make bail
Can you please forgive me
(CHORUS)
Mrs. Forgetful that's what they're calling me
It's not like I don't care at all
Won't they let me be
I write my list on a notepad
And I use the sharpest pencil
I don't remember where on earth it's at
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
I'm famous as Mrs. Forgetful
So I wasn't there for you
Is it such a crime
I ring your number to explain
You don't find the time
I have a lot to do did I ignore you
I'm forgettin' this I've forgotten that
What else can I do
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
I found my keys in the cookie jar
Drove off to pay the bills with no gas in my car
Sunday morning the preacher said
Those slippers match the hat on your head
Oops! Sorry!
(Repeat Chorus)
