Mabel’s Prayer (American Cast)

[MABEL, spoken]
I wanna die!
Lord, I wanna die!
Take me now, Jesus, and get it over with!
Maybe they'll be some vanilla pudding waiting up in heaven for me

(Sung)

Oh Lord, give me a sign
Give me a call on your heavenly line
Tell me, oh Lord, what it is that you want of me
Keep me from eatin' whatever's in front of me

[MABEL and ENSEMBLE]
Oh Lord!

[ENSEMBLE]
Give her a sign (Oh, give me your sign!)
Give her a call (Call me up)
On your heavenly line (On your heavenly line)
Tell her oh Lord, what it is that you want of her (Tell me! Oh, save me!)
Keep her from eatin' whatever's in front of her (Save me from eatin' whatever's in front of me)

[Mabel]
Oh Lord, give me the answer (Ooh, ah!)
Save me from being the world's-
Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!
Fattest dancer! (Ooh)
