We must have lunch real soon, your luggage is checked through
We've got inflation licked I'll get right back to you
It's just a standard form tomorrow without fail
Pleased to meet you, thanks a lot, your check is in the mail

Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Your toes and knees aren't all you'll freeze

When you're in it up to your thighs
It looks like snow but you never know
When you're marooned in a blizzard of lies

You may have won a prize, won't wrinkle, shrink or peel
Your secret's safe with me, this is a real good deal
It's finger lickin' good, strictly by the book
What's fair is fair, I'll be right there, I am not a crook

Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Better watch your step when your old dog Shep

Can't even look you in the eyes
You're cold and lost and you're double crossed
When you're marooned in a blizzard of lies

We'll send someone right out, now this won't hurt a bit
He's in a meeting now, the coat's a perfect fit
It's strictly fresh today, service with a smile
I'll love you, darling, 'til I die, we'll keep your name on file

Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you're in for a big surprise

When you're marooned, marooned
Marooned, marooned, marooned in a blizzard of lies
A blizzard of lies
