Sister, what's wrong?
Why so blue?

Girls, is it that obvious?

I got all dolled up in my Saturday night best
'Cause I didn't know my fella was a fraud
But when I walked in to his cozy little nest
He was in the feathers with another broad!
Now I see that his sweet nothings
Were nothing more than lies
So now, girls, the scales have fallen
From my rosy colored eyes!

Hit it!

He keeps a gaggle of names
In his little black book
Of all the gullible dames
That he keeps on the hook

He was so sweet when we met
So, girls, how was I to know

That he lied when he said hello?

Yes, like a Vaudeville scene
Oh, he's playing a part
He's just a dime-store Valentino
But without any heart!

He's not a movie star
He's just another two-timing Joe

And he lied when he said hello!

He has a chorus of songbirds
He keeps under wing

So face the fact

The guy is no saint

The guy is no saint

To you, he's finally the one
To him, you're only a fling

'Cause the man is just pretending
That he's someone he ain't!

Someone he ain't!

So while you're floatin' in bliss
Keep your eyes on his nose
Because with every stolen kiss
You'll see the way that it grows

Cut the strings while you can
'Cause he'll never propose

Girl, he's just a sad Pinnochio!

You're not the bride that he'll wed
'Cause he lied when he said hello!

The dirty rotten bastard lied when he said hello!

So many voices I hear
So many faces I see
First there is Josephine, who's saying
"Joe, you're smarter as me!"
And then there's Kip, who's shouting
"Schatzi, it's the end of your show!"

'Cause you lied when he said hello!

If I ask Josephine
"How can I clean up this mess?"
She'd say, "I thought you got much wiser
When you put on my dress"
Then Kip would interrupt with
"Dummkopf, you reap what ya sow!"

'Cause pal, you lie when you say hello!

Since I was only a kid, I was taught by the best
Disguise the truth, and throw 'em some curves
But now it's time to grow up, to put the old Joe to rest
And finally be the friend that Jerry
I mean Daphne deserves

And Sugar can't love a man
And never know his real name
And so it's time for telling Kip
That Joe is through with the game
Then I'll make Josephine proud
By finally taking the blame
Then Kip and Josephine will have to go!

So when you see her tonight

I'm gonna tell her the truth!

And tell Pinnochio "skedaddle"!

While I still got my youth

So now we're through with pretending
It's time to do right
I'm gonna have a happy ending
'Cause I just saw the light
And now the final bell is ringin'
It's the end of the fight
This referee just called a T.K.O.!

To prove to Sugar I wanna stay
I will not lie when I say

Hello!

Toodle-oo!
