Lucky Stiff movie - The Phone Call lyrics

rate me

<br>

Airport announcement: Welcome to this airport. <br>

Ground transportation for visitors proceeding to Monte Carlo<br>

Is available on the lower level<br>

<br>

Vinnie: Uh, hello? Mary Alice? Can you hear me?<br>

Listen honey, I'm calling to tell you.<br>

There's a problem. Are you sitting?<br>

Well I won't be home for dinner tonight.<br>

You know Nicky, Rita's husband?<br>

Well I think he is planning to kill me<br>

Mary Alice, it's not funny, <br>

And I won't be home for dinner tonight<br>

<br>

Don't hold the meatloaf, don't toss the salad.<br>

Don't talk to strangers, and make up some excuse for mom<br>

Call all my patients, break my appointments<br>

Please, Mary Alice just be calm<br>

<br>

Are you finished? Are you better?<br>

Mary Alice you're overreacting<br>

Honey Bunny, are you crying?<br>

It's your birthday? Gee, I'm sorry<br>

Mary Alice, it's only a birthday<br>

So you're 40, I'm in danger.<br>

And I can't come home for dinner<br>

<br>

Blow out the candles, open the presents<br>

Please Mary Alice, <br>

I'm in Europe, in an airport<br>

With no wallet, no cards and no money<br>

With my sister, who is crazy<br>

And who's got me in an awful jam<br>

<br>

So the answer, Mary Alice is I won't be home for dinner<br>

Mary Alice? Mary Alice? Damn!<br>

<br>
