BARBRA STREISAND - Blind Date lyrics

rate me

Fanny & chorus

Smooth the sofa, plump the pillows

Dump the ashtrays, oh this dress

Look at me I am shaking all over,

Shaking all over

I'm a mess

Waiting wondering what I'll be thinking

When he comes walking through that door

What'll come walking through that door

A man I never saw in my life before

Oh,

I am so nervous

I got a blind date waiting to call on me (any minute now)

I got a blind date what am I gonna see (any minute now)

Right over there's the doorway, he will be walking through

Will he be six foot eight or maybe four foot two (it could happen)

I got a blind date waiting to come around (any minute now)

Oy but I'm nervous listen to my heart pound

Why do I need this headache, single is not a crime

I got a blind date

An with my luck he'll be on time

I got a girlfriend shirley, who says why not (she's an idiot)

This guy is a friend from a friend of a friend she

got (hello, how do you do

What an idiot)

One thing I know is shirley ain't sitting on no shelf

If he was such a vow she'd keep him for herself (it's only natural)

She says she is he's nice and he deals in stocks (sounds good, but she's an

Idiot)

I'll bet a buck he looks like month-old lox (also and idiot)

What do I need from shirley her and her fifty cup

I got a blind date and I'm praying he stands me up

Wait wait, what am I praying he stands me up,

I'll stand him up. I smell a rat

Anyway. umm. I'm gonna hide under the bed,

he'll never see me, he'll walk in and look

Around, I wouldn't be there, he'll go away and that's the end of that.

Perrfect!

Now you keep quiet, not a word you hear

You didn't see a thing

Oeps there he is!

Now quiet everybody sssh quiet!

Blind date: rosalie? !

Rosalie: oi, oi, oi

Blind date: rosalie? ! that's odd she doesn't seem to be here

Rosalie: smart, smart!

Blind date: I've been stood up, it's news

Rosalie: well it's better than put down

Blind date: this has never happened before

Rosalie: what and ego!

Blind date: rosalie? !

Rosalie: sh, sh, sh!

Rosalie: it worked, it worked!

He never saw me. boy am I lucky I didn't see him neither,

But I can just imagine what a lox that one was.

Rosalie: I got it right her shirley was playing tricks

Voice: no, no, that's wrong, you got it wrong

Rosalie: wait, wait, what that's not right?

Voice: no, he was gorgeous he looked like rudolph

Rosalie: rudolph who?

Voice: rudolph valentino

Rosalie: get away

Voice: yeah, the sheik from arabia

Rosalie: not the phantom from the opera?

Voice: uh, uh

Rosalie: the sheik from where?

Voice: the sheik from arabia

Rosalie: get away

Voice: that's right

Rosalie: wait a minute is this person kidding me around here?

Voice: no, no absolutely

Rosalie: get away

Rosalie: well that's what happened I let him get away

What do I'll do now maybe become a nun (that's impossible)

I'm calling shirley maybe she'll bring a gun

Please shirley, even if he's lon chaney fat, bald or short or tall

Having a blind date is better than having

No date, at no time with no one at all.

Wait a minute maybe I spoke too soon

Shirley get me out of here!

Oh this one is cute.
