Blind date lyrics

Artist  : Barbra streisand 
Song : Blind date
 
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.
