Veren zol fun dir a blintsa
|
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
And all the goyim say I'm pretty fly for a rabbi
|
|
Meccha leccha hi, meccha hiney hiney ho
|
|
Our temple's had a fair share of rabbis in the past
|
But most of 'em were nudniks and none of 'em would last
|
But our new guy's real kosher, I tyhink he'll do the trick
|
I tell ya, he's to dies for - he really knows his shtick
|
|
So how's by you? Have you seen this Jew?
|
Reads the Torah, does his own accounting too
|
Workin' like a dog at the synagogue
|
He's there all day, he's there all day
|
Just say "Vay iz mir!" and he'll kick into gear
|
He'll bring you lots of cheer and maybe bagels with some shmeer
|
Just grab your yarmulka and
|
Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing!
|
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
And all the goyim say I'm pretty fly (for a rabbi)
|
|
He shops at discount stores, not just any will sufice
|
He has to find a bargain 'cause he won't pay retail price
|
He never acts meshugga and he's hardly a schlemiel
|
But if you wanna haggle, oy, he'll make you such a deal!
|
|
People used to scoff, now they say "Mazel tov!"
|
He's such a macher 'cause he worked his tuchis off
|
Yeah, he keeps his cool and teaches shul
|
What's not to like? What's not to like?
|
On high holy days, you know he prays and prays
|
And he never eats pastrami on white breath with mayonnaise
|
Put on your yarmulka and
|
Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing!
|
|
When he's doing a Bar Mitzvah, now that you shouldn't miss
|
He'll always shlep on down for a wedding or a briss
|
They say he's got a lot of chutzpah, he's really quitehhhhhip
|
The parents pay the moyl and he gets to keep the tip
|
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
(How ya doin' Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey
|
|
Meccha leccha hi, meccha meccha cholly ho
|
|
He's doin' well, I gotta kvell
|
The yentas love him, even shicksas think he's swell
|
Show up at his home, he says "Shalom"
|
And "Have some cake - you want some cake?"
|
Yah, he calls the shots, we really love him lots
|
Oy gevalt, I'm so ferklempt that I could plotz
|
So grab your yarmulka
|
The one you got for Chanukah
|
Let's put on our yarmulkas and
|
Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing!
|
