[00:00:28] You just needed some money

[00:00:30] That's what you said

[00:00:31] You were going to college and get ahead

[00:00:34] Instead of being a music business bum

[00:00:37] You were going to NYU

[00:00:39] And become an English teacher

[00:00:50] If only you'd been an English teacher

[00:00:56] We'd have a little apartment in Queens

[00:01:00] You'd get a summer vacation

[00:01:03] And we would know what life means

[00:01:06] A man who's got his masters

[00:01:10] Is really someone

[00:01:13] How proud I'd be if you had become one

[00:01:19] It could have been such a wonderful life

[00:01:23] I could have been Mrs Peterson

[00:01:26] Mrs Albert Peterson

[00:01:29] Mrs Phi Beta Kappa Peterson

[00:01:32] The English teacher's wife

[00:01:37] Rose I told you as soon as I get a few box ahead

[00:01:40] You said that before Albert

[00:01:42] Then a long can come right bird it
