- BLIZZARD OF LIES
- by D. & S. Frishberg
-
- We must have lunch real soon.
- Your luggage is checked through.
- We've got inflation licked.
- I'll get right back to you.
- It's just a standard form.
- Tomorrow without fail.
- Pleased to meet you, thanks a lot.
- Your check is in the mail.
-
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Your nose and knees aren't all you'll freeze
- When you're in it up to your thighs.
- It looks like snow, but you never know
- When you're marooned in a blizzard of lies.
-
- You may have won a prize.
- Won't wrinkle, shrink or peel.
- Your secret's safe with me.
- This is a real good deal.
- It's finger-lickin' good.
- Strictly by the book.
- What's fair is fair. I'll be right there.
- I am not a crook.
-
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Better watch your step when your old dog Shep
- Can't even look you in the eyes.
- You're cold and lost and you're double-crossed
- When you're marooned in a blizzard of lies.
-
- We'll send someone right out.
- Now this won't hurt a bit.
- He's in a meeting now.
- The coat's a perfect fit.
- Strictly fresh today.
- Service with a smile.
- I'll love you, darling, till I die.
- We'll keep your name on file.
-
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
- Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
- And you're in for a big surprise
- When you're marooned...
- Marooned...
- Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies.
-
- Blizzard of lies.
