lyrics

Her father died and left her almost nothing in his will 
She had a schizophrenic roommate and a place on Murray Hill 
She wanted a career that didn’t take a lot of skill 
Her roommate had an IUD and she was on the pill.

She was young 
She was cute 
She took the bus 
She wore a suit 
She bought sudokos  for her commute

What’s upstairs?
There’s not a lot 
(But it doesn’t mean she isn’t hot.) 
That’s all she is.
 She’s Liz The Hot Receptionist

Married guys at work were always looking down her shirt
 They would hang around her desk on their way to take a squirt 
She wouldn’t get involved- she was afraid of getting hurt 
But cocktails were expensive so she knew she had to flirt

She passed the time.
She paid the rent 
She learned to be subservient 
Her skin got dry from the heating vent.

What’s upstairs?
There’s not a lot.
 (But it doesn’t mean she isn’t hot.)
 That’s all she is. 
She’s Liz: The Hot Receptionist

Harris gave her Tic Tacs 
Martin gave her Diet Coke
 Watzman bought her cookies
 Porter gave her dope
 She never got promoted
 Always wondered why
 Her desk was by the printer:
easy to stop by.

Liz! Liz! Liz!

She met a guy in real estate 
He put her name on his license plate
 They make their home in the Garden State

What’s upstairs?
 There’s not a lot 
(But it doesn’t mean she isn’t hot) 
That’s all she is. 
She’s Liz The Hot Receptionist 
Hunh!
