about

Joanna Barnes as Gloria Upson delivers her memorable soliloquy about ping-pong and perky supermarket Muzak plays in the background. It's 60 seconds you'll never get back, but then a minute isn't what it used to be.

lyrics

[Gloria Upson]
Mrs. Burnside, you could practically write a whole book about what happened to me:

Bunny Bixler and I were in the semi-finals—
The very semi-finals, mind you—
Of the ping-pong tournament at the club.

Bunny Bixler and I were in the semi-finals, yes—
The very semi-finals, mind you—
Of the ping-pong tournament,
And this ghastly thing happened.

Bunny Bixler and I were in the semi-finals.

The score was 29-28,
And we had this really terrific volley,
And I stepped back to get this really terrific shot—
And I stepped on the ping-pong ball.

Imagine?
Well, it was ghastly.

[Doris Upson]
Well, it was amusing!

[Claude Upson]
Yes, yes.

[Gloria]
Well, it was just ghastly.
Well, I just squashed it to bits.

[Agnes Gooch]
I think it's very ununsual.

[Gloria]
Imagine?
