|
I'm breaking my mother's heart |
|
The longer I stand looking at you |
|
The more I hear it splinter and crack |
|
From ninety miles away |
|
I'm breaking my mother's heart |
|
The JCC of Spring Valley is shaking |
|
And crumbling to the ground |
|
And my grandfather's rolling |
|
Rolling in his grave |
|
If you had a tattoo, that wouldn't matter |
|
If you had a shaved head, that would be cool |
|
If you came from Spain or Japan |
|
Or the back of a van |
|
Just as long as you're not from Hebrew school |
|
I'd say, \"Now I'm getting somewhere! |
|
I'm finally breaking through!\" |
|
I'd say, \"Hey! Hey! Shiksa goddess! |
|
I've been waiting for someone like you\" |
|
I've been waiting through Danica Schwartz and Erica Weiss |
|
And the Handelman twins |
|
I've been waiting through Heather Greenblatt, Annie Mincus, Karen Pincus and Lisa Katz |
|
And Stacy Rosen, Ellen Kaplan, Julie Silber and Janie Stein |
|
I've had Shabbas dinners on Friday nights |
|
With every Shapiro in Washington Heights |
|
But the minute I first met you |
|
I could barely catch my breath |
|
I've been standing for days with the phone in my hand |
|
Like and idiot, scared to death |
|
I've been wandering through the desert |
|
I've been beaten, I've been hit |
|
My people have suffered for thousands of years |
|
And I don't give a sh*t! |
|
If you had a pierced tongue, that wouldn't matter |
|
If you once were in jail or you once were a man, |
|
If your mother and your brother had \"relations\" with each other |
|
And your father was connected to the Gotti clan |
|
I'd say, \"Well, nobody's perfect\" |
|
It's tragic but it's true |
|
I'd say, \"Hey! Hey! Shiksa goddess! |
|
I've been waiting for someone like...\" |
|
You, breaking the circle |
|
You, taking the light |
|
You, you are the story |
|
I should write |
|
I have to write! |
|
If you drove an R.V., that wouldn't matter |
|
If you like to drink blood, I think it's cute |
|
If you've got a powerful connection to your firearm collection |
|
I'd say, Draw a bead and shoot |
|
I'm your Hebrew slave, at your service |
|
Just tell me what to do |
|
I say, \"Hey hey hey hey! |
|
I've been waiting for someone |
|
I've been praying for someone |
|
I think that I could be in love with someone |
|
Like You\" |
