Cliches

Somebody told me that cliches are dead But what if I run out of things to say Can I say "to know me is to love me" Or "tomorrow is just another day" What about "liars never prosper and cheaters never win" Would I be accused of reviving the dead "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" Or is it "an ace in the hole instead" "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" Or if you fall "it's only a scrape" What if I tell them to "button your lip" Will they get "all bent out of shape" But I'm "at the end of the pecking order" So how much can I really know I'll never use cliches again Right after " I told you so"
