Judy
So you think your daughter's going to marry a guy.
All you planned to do that day was stand there and cry.
She wears your dress, she wears your pearls
And then she says shes pregnant and she sleeps with girls.
But am I surprised?
Georgette
That's Family
There's a chance I should have known that my son would be gay.
I encouraged everything to make him that way.
I showed him plays with thespians.
It worked so well he's gay and sleeps with lesbians.
But am I surprised?
Judy
It doesn't work that way
Georgette
I know
Judy and Georgette
That's family
You can make plans by the score
Involve your children and just watch the plans fly out the door
Georgette
Now our kids are getting ready to add to the klan
Judy
With so many of us bubbies its useless to plan
Georgette
What's a grandma?
Judy
The child will grow
Georgette

Judy and Georgette

Georgette
Will they be surprised?
