Moishe The Kid

Lyrics

Not long ago on one fine day in Flushing, Queens
 The month was May
 A day with more than normal count of smog
 The word went out to stay inside, from Tel Aviv to Telluride
 'Cause Moishe the Kid was leashin' up his dog
 Well he's a quiet man who loves his mutts
 He loves 'em so he drives 'em nuts
 He's caring and he's giving to a fault
 But just watch out where you park your car,
 You just might end up at the bar
 And laying down a lawsuit for assault
 Well oy vey and a yippie tiay and you might say his hair is grey but I'm telling
 you he's got shtetl dust in his blood
 Well baruch-hu and a yippie tiyou I'm telling you he's an ornery Jew who knocks
 'em flat and chugs himself a bud
 Well on that day he hit the drive, you saw his eyes just come alive, His jaw 'bout
 nearly almost hit the floor
 'Cause he could tell just by the tread, sides of green, top of red
 This stagecoach was the Chevy from next door
 He sidled over to the guy and let out with a pitied sigh
 And punched him 'til the joik was walking blind
 And as Fido fertilized the flowers, mechanics had to work for hours
 cause just one punch and his wheels were misaligned
 Well oy vey and a yippie tiay and you might say his hair is grey but I'm telling
 you he's got shtetl dust in his blood
 Well baruch-hu and a yippie tiyou I'm telling you he's an ornery Jew Who knocks
 'em flat and chugs himself a bud
 Well, Moishe the Kid just tarried there
 With his neighbor in intensive care
 As a seven forty-seven crossed the moon
 He stopped to savor the midnight smog
 And whistled out to his trusty dog
 And stepped back into his very own saloon
 Now if you want to try you hand, and be the baddest in the land
 Don't say I didn't warn you, 'cause I did
 And remember, please that fateful day
 When the sorry soul got towed away
 For parkin' in the path of Moishe the Kid
 Well oy vey and a yippie tiay and you might say his hair is grey but I'm telling
 you he's got shtetl dust in his blood
 Well baruch-hu and a yippie tiyou I'm telling you he's an ornery Jew Who knocks
 'em flat and chugs himself a bud
