McCartney, Paul - Temporary Secretary Lyrics
Mister Marks can you find for me
Someone strong and sweet fitting on my knee
She can keep her job if she gets it wrong
Ah, but Mister Marks I won't need her long
All I need is help for a little while
And a temporary secretary is what I need for to do the job
I need a
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Mister Marks could you send her quick
'Cause my regular has been getting sick
I need a
Mister Marks I can pay her well
If she comes along and can stay a spell
I will promise now that I'll treat her right
And will rarely keep her 'til late at night
I need a
She can be a belly dancer
I don't need a true romancer
She can be a diplomat
But I don't need a girl like that
She can be a neurosurgeon
If she's doin' nothing' urgent
What I need's a temporary, temporary secretary
I need a, I need a
Temporary secretary. Temporary secretary
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Now Mister Marks when I send her back
Will you please make sure she stays on the right track
Spoken: well I know how hard it is for young girls these days in the face of everything to stay on
The right track
What I need's a temporary, temporary secretary
Temporary secretary I need a
Temporary secretary, temporary secretary
Temporary secretary I need a
Temporary secretary. Temporary secretary
Temporary secretary

McCartney, Paul Temporary Secretary Comments
I think Paul might have been listening to a lot of Sparks at the time he wrote this.
_Man, that's wack_
_Everybody use that_
_Yo, w'oncha bring back that other track?_
_Yeah, there you go, that's what I'm saying_
_I like it when that dope stuff is playin'_
_Real loud_
_In your ear hole_
i genuinely thought the song was called "Jerry Temporary". Thanks SiIva.
This sounds like something The Residents would make.
This song is genius. 🔥🔥
The beatles are so over rated its unbelievable.
This guy could shoot someone in the middle of times square and everyone would still love him.
Paul McCartney 2024
Temporary secretary- Riton
For your pleasur
Love it!!!! Please Paul do meow
a crack video led me to this song in the year of our lord 2020
Day 35 I unironically really like this song like it just works so well
rare faul content
What the fuck
Why'd he write this, record it, produce the track, and release it for public consumption
Paul's 80s synth phase.
the joke is Jerry Temporary
Great song almost ruined by practically irritating production. Also....he clearly doesn't care.
Jerry Temporary
Paul is ahead of his time... he was able to create a song way more annoying than the Baby Shark song.
Same guy who brought you songs like, Let it Be, Hey Jude, Yesterday, She's Leaving Home, Helter Skelter, Blackbird, Eleanor Rigby.
Every once in a while I’ll listen to this and start to bob my head or tap my foot but then I’ll be jolted back into existence when the chorus comes on
John was alive when this album was released, I wonder if he heard this song
better than devo
hands down greatest song by faul, 10/10
Sounds insane played at 2x
I genuinely like this song
This is some Hardcore Devo Vol. 1 shit
I can't tell if people genuinely like this song or they're just shitposting
shitposting I think
It begins as shitpost then it turns into true love
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
Holy bad song
This is the song you play when you want people to leave your house after a party
mistercarlos
al habla
My little chihuahua loves this song! Not sure why?
this is a song gary numan would make if he was shit
This may be the LoadOfHunting's theme for me.
Who is mr. Marx?
His agent or something.
guys i love this SO MUCH
Macca's weird songs are something i live for. they're so creative, weird, funny. he's so free minded. he experiments and has fun while doing it. and he does it brilliantly. i mean who else could came up with lyrics about a fucking secretary and have this?? only our paul
i genuinly love this song.
she can be a neurosurgeon if she's doing nothing urgent!
paul is so creative like WOW HIS MIND
i wonder what john, george and ringo thought of this
I wonder what he was on when he wrote this song
this is one of those songs that proves that there was more to McCartney's solo career than met the eye.
This is pauls reaction to John dying
Oh god I asked my teacher to put this and he was like "does it have bad language" And I giggled and said "nope but it's from the greatest artist" And he played it for the whole class 🤣
what was the reaction??
Even when Paul is goofing around it's still gold:)
fuck the haters. this song is great.
You ever just look at an album cover and be all like:
*"same"*
same indescribable emotion as miles smiles
Someone should recut the scene in Civil War where Zimo activates Bucky with this song.
In the history of war songs this is number one
At 0.25, this sounds like the end of mankind.
this made my dog leave the room
Maybe the worst song ever created. Absolutely brilliant.
This makes me smile from ear to ear
why do people hate this? It's not that experimental
Jeff was right
Thanks Jeff
Play this song multiple times at once to experience true nirvana.
I think Paul's actually writing about a time he needed a temporary secretary because his regular was on sick leave. If you read between the lines, the context is clear.
Giant Bomb brought me here
im scared—?
Giantbomb brought me here.
Giant Bomb sent me.
VulpiusFox Jeff screaming I LOVE THIS SOOOOOOOOOONG gives me life
#1 Song of the 80's as voted by Giant Bomb
Threat Level: Gerstmann
I don't mind the verse... that delivery on the chorus though is weird.
Lady in red is worse.
I LOVE THIS SOOOOOONNNNGGGGG!!!!
It was voted #1 worst song of the 80's. Obviously
It was only voted to the top because it is most representative of the 80's which everyone knows is one of the most egregious decades of all time. This song is the perfect embodiment of that insane period of time.
This song sounds like something from Mother 3
This is just after he was in prison in Japan hence the rhythms ..very inventive ahead of its time..
Paul the genius.
i genuinely like this, like not even as a joke, it's not something i would have expected paul to make but it's fun
Mc Punk.
HIGH QUALITY RIPS
I’ve been thinking for lately that I never even remotely considered that McCartney is kind of a weird dude. Listening to this, now I come to confirm all my suspicions.
Everybody gangsta till you start liking this song unironically
Sometimes you just hear a song too much and...
this song makes me laff
This is, upon first glance, a strange song that sounds bad. The more I listen to it, the more it gets stuck in my head. You find yourself moving to it. I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s just something... not right. Everything seems off but I somehow enjoy it
I love discovering up and coming artists
*Imagine if The Beatles never broke up and this became one of their songs.*
it'd be regarded as a classic
Why did they not put this in everyday chemistry lmao
I can only imagine....George and Ringo both quit again. John and Paul argue over whether this or working class hero should be first or second in the album. George Martin adds strings? I DEFINITELY think Yoko could get in on the action with screeches and such, if anyone let her near a microphone. I'd also add in a billy preston solo in the middle...JUST for fun.
Paul is multi-dimensional. His creativity is unlimited. He is a musical genius.
This was my wedding song.
Wtf is this bro
This reminds me of peter gabriels first album
FOOKIN BOSS
This is a cool song!! 🤨
THERES NO WAY HE MADE THIS SONG OMG
I remember hearing this song for the first time in the mid 80's and I loved it! Played it all the time for a little while then totally forgot about it as I dove deeper into stuff like Bauhaus, The Cure, Siouxsie & the Banshees, etc. etc. Anyways - a few months ago this song popped back in my mind and I kept telling myself to find it on YouTube to see if it was how I remembered it. But I kept forgetting to look for it! I would be on YouTube not able to remember what it was I supposed to look up. Then a few days later I would remember again while driving but of course by the time I was back home and doing other stuff I would forget again. So frustrating to constantly have that feeling you are forgetting something in the back of your mind... ANYWAYS - today I finally did it! Whoo hooo! And the song was *NOT* how I remembered it! I still had a lot of the lyrics in my mind so it was great to hear it again. When I heard it, it seemed like a normal song like a generic pop song - but of course I was seriously into alternative/dirge music so this new wave sounding song sounded normal to me. But just now listening to it I was like WTF!?!?!?!?
It kinda slaps tho.
This is the best bad Song.
This is basically Death Grips
Devo-Macca.
someone had to remaster this
i guess he was like 'GUYS!!! I HAVE A SYNTH!!!!' and that's what he created
Hotline McCartney
i genuinely REALLY like this song its different yet so catchy and it has stayed in my mind since the first time i heard it.
I genuinely really like this
This song is an abortion.
I love it so much. what is wrong with me?
So he figured out how to use sample and hold and then put some guitar and drum on it? Okay
When I heard this in concert it was so terrible with a couple of the other opening songs...I thought I was going to have to walk out on my $100 tickets
Ominous, frightening, and wonderful.
He was WAY ahead with electrionica, new wave like talking heads remain in light, disco beat but new wave sound and even house music and sambas on this album. Like many macca efforts, downed by critics then. One site shows 80 review but updated realization that sound and music here so ahead of time.
I came here expecting something like Wild Honey Pie, but I actually really like this
So you don't like Wild Honey Pie? I LOVE IT
