Lyrics

I?VE GOT RESERVATIONS
(Steve Multer, Karen Multer 2003)

Vodka or gin - all depends upon the mood I'm in
The Palm or Sardi's - I simply can't decide
At 7 or 9 - well either one would be just fine
See I've Got Reservations

Carriage or taxi - seems neither option would relax me
Roses or daisies - the gesture feels the same
Simple or formal - by my view vacillation?s normal
'Cause I've Got Reservations

Deciding on a pair of pants may take a momentary glance
Conforming to a job's a cup of tea
Committing may be fitting for a zombie in a trance
But choosing where to aim the heart's implausible as modern art so

Oysters or lobster - whichever creature does the job sir
Chocolate or lemon - I'm not sure which to choose
Coffee or cognac - assess the angle of attack
And by the way I've Got Reservations

Determining which bet to make is usually a piece of cake
Electing politicians is a lark
Emoting is connoting your resolve is wide awake
But how can you resolve to love when all that you are thinking of is

Am I prepared - the table's waiting don't be scared
Am I a fool - just show the ring and see
Am I on time ? I think I heard a wedding chime
And I've Got Reservations
I've Got Reservations
