While traveling through the Lone Star State
|
I lost my lunch before I ate,
|
It happened in a pull-ahead cafe. Yahoo!
|
I felt my bones begin to crunch
|
I saw my name on the businessman¡¯s lunch
|
And the neck who owned the place stepped up to say:
|
¡°Hey buddy, are you blind,
|
Say, partner, can¡¯t you read the sign ?¡±
|
We reserve the right to refuse service to you,
|
Take your business back to Walgreen¡¯s,
|
Have you tried your local zoo ?
|
You smell just like a communist,
|
You come on through just like a Jew,
|
We reserve the right to refuse service to you.
|
|
Well, I walked on in to my House of God
|
Congregation on the nod,
|
Just chosen folks are doing their weekly thing.
|
Hear, O Israel, yes indeed,
|
My book was backwards, couldn¡¯t read,
|
But I got a good rise when I heard that Rabbi sing,
|
¡°Boruch atoh Adonoi,
|
What the hell are you doing back there, boy ?¡±
|
|
We reserve the right to refuse services to you,
|
Your friends are all on welfare ?
|
You call yourself a Jew ?
|
You need your ticket and your tie
|
To zip your prayers on through,
|
We reserve the right to refuse services unto you.
|
|
Life from Laos and Cambodia
|
No more tears tonight they showed ya
|
The latest old war movies on TV.
|
You know it¡¯s bound to escalate
|
So go and turn on channel eight,
|
Watch channel seven border channel three.
|
Well, I won¡¯t mind your tanks and jets and jeeps
|
And speaking on behalf of all my fellow creeps:
|
|
We reserve the right to refuse service to you,
|
Right, face, forward, move
|
And get the children, too.
|
Let Saigons be bygones,
|
Don¡¯t you blow this world in two.
|
We reserve the right to refuse service to you.
|
|
Well, it¡¯s just my luck that God¡¯s a Texan
|
One big sonbitchin¡¯ Anglo-Saxon,
|
Some crazy tall Norwegian bore
|
Just to help my body shipped air-freight
|
From Texas to the Pearly Gate
|
Just ring the bell and leave me at the door.
|
I¡¯ll be somewhere over Jordan swinging low,
|
I¡¯ll hear them tape-recorded angels in lifelike stereo
|
|
Singing,
|
¡°We reserve the right to refuse service to you,
|
Take your business back to Walgreen¡¯s,
|
Have you tried your local zoo ?
|
Our quota¡¯s filled for this year
|
On singing Texas Jews,
|
We reserve the right to refuse service to you.¡±
