Now, it's not a big problem,
You know, I find that still a
lot of people call me Lisa.
Well, for instance, somebody will
come up to me on the street
and say, Hello, Lisa, how are you?
I Fine, thank you, but it's Liza.
Or somebody will say, Lisa,
what a nice hat you have on.
I'll say, Thank you very much,
So you can see what I mean.
to figure out a final solution
and I think I've come up with
It's Liza with a Z, not Lisa with an S,
cuz Lisa with an S goes non -z.
It's simple as can be. See, Liza?
I'll do it again. It's Liza with
cuz Lisa with an S goes non -z.
it's simple as can be, see, Liza.
Now, if my name were Ada, I'd be Ada,
even backwards, I'd be Ada.
because with Ruth, what can you do?
Or Sally, or Margaret, or Ginger, or Faye,
you al ways have to say, no,
it's Liza with a Z, not Liza with an S,
because Liza with an S goes,
it's Z instead of S, line instead of B,
It's simple as can be, see, Liza?
Oh, and that is only half of it
There she goes, Lisa Minnoli
So is it a wonder I very of ten cry?
You double up the N, that's not new
Then E -double the L, end it with an I
That's the way you say Minnelli
Life's seminally, it's Italian
Blame it on Harper, what can I do?
Every Sandra who's a Sandra
Every Mary who's really Marie
I don't mind being pummeled
But it does drive you bats
to be mis -mispronounced!
It's Liza with a Z, not Lisa with an S
Cause Lisa with an S goes snubs
See, Liza, then M -I double
You double up the N, that's not new
Then E double the L, end it with an I
That's the way you say Minnelli!
Liza Minnelli! it's easy it's easy it's lazy
