Miss Mary took a shower and she showed herself to me
she said that God and all his glory was revealed to her
carnally
she said she'd been with no man, but she must have been
with me
and when I felt her with my finger, the proof burned my
belief
so how much can I stand, I'm just a mortal man
I wring my praying hands, she stands there before me
c'est la vie, whatever that means, la di da
and a Doris Day, que sera sera
c'est la vie, whatever that means, la di da
and a Doris Day, que sera sera
