Who Do I Call?


I had a little accident today!  I hurt my tummy and my knee!
I needed it kissed better, and I need my mummy you see!
But my mummy went to heaven, when I was only three!
I didn't want her to go, because I needed her here with me.

So I tried to find my mummy, I need to phone her in heaven!
So I phoned the operator, cos I am only seven!
I told the operator…That I need to see my mum!
And told her that I fell down, and I had an aching tum!

'Can you find me the number?' I asked, 'because you see,'
'I need my mum to make it better she has a magic kiss for me.'
'Tell me operator...is it in this yellow book?'
'The telephone number to heaven, I can't find it when I look.'

'Operator are you there, are you hurting too?'
'Is your mummy in heaven, don't you know what to do?'
'Can I phone her in heaven, do you think I will get through?'
'I really need my mummy! And I don't know what to do?'

'Oh, I found this piece of paper, pinned high upon this wall,'
'It's for my little church!  I'm going to make a call.'
'My daddy always told me, my church would help me out,'
'And I can I say a prayer to God, if ever I'm in doubt!'

'I think my daddy misses her? He can't find Heaven for me,'
'He said that God took her away, when I was only three!'
'I sometimes see a tear…in my daddy's eye,'
'His face goes red and sad, and then he will start to cry.'

'Operator I'm going now!'  
'But I hope that you feel better,'
'And if heaven doesn't have a phone,'
'Try sending God a letter!'
