Thankyou very much, you're really terrific

And seeing how you are, can I tell ya something, I have a problem

No wait, it's not a big problem, but it is a problem

It's my name, you know I find that still - a lot of people call me Lisa - Wrong

My name is Liza - Liza - has a 'Z' in it

Well, for instance, somebody'll come up to me on the street and say

Hello Lisa how are you, I'll say, I'm fine thankyou but it's Liza

Or somebody'll say - Lisa what a nice hat you have on

I'll say thank you very much but my name is Liza and that's my hair

So you can see what I mean

Anyway, I've been trying to figure out a final solution to this whole thing

And I think I've come up with the answer - Jack



It's Liza with 'Z' not Lisa with an 'S', 'Cause Lisa with an 'S' goes SSno'ZZ

It's 'Z' instead of 'S', 'Lie' instead of 'Lee', It's simple as can be, see, Liza

I'll do it again

It's Liza with 'Z' not Lisa with an 'S', 'Cause Lisa with an 'S' goes SSno'ZZ

It's 'Z' instead of 'S', 'Lie' instead of 'Lee', It's simple as can be, see, Liza



Now - if my name were Ada, I'd be Ada, even backwards I'd be Ada

Or if my name were Ruth, then I'd be Ruth because with Ruth what can you do

Or Sally, or Margaret or Ginger or Faye

But when you're a Liza you always have to say



Nn - It's Liza with 'Z' not Lisa with an 'S', 'Cause Lisa with an 'S' goes SSno'ZZ

It's 'Z' instead of 'S', 'Lie' instead of 'Lee', It's simple as can be, see, Liza



Ah - And that is only half of it - there's another way they treat me cruelly

How often I remember someone saying, ther
