Canceling The Bar Mitzvah

8 views

Lyrics

Jason, if you want a bat mitzvah
 God knows you can have a bat mitzvah
 But I have to know
 And I have to know now
 Just what it is you want
 I've addressed the invitations
 Here's your chance to give me hell
 If you think it's bust
 It is probably just as well
 Can't we wait til Whizzer gets better?
 Can't wait 'til he's out?
 That's what bat mitzvahs should be all about
 Good friends close at hand
 Don't you understand?
 Shh
 We can't be sure when he'll get better
 When or if he'll ever get better
 What?
 But the hall is booked
 And the band's set to play
 So, Jason, please
 What we'll do is your decision
 There's no right
 And there's no wrong
 Just say yes or no
 And we promise to go along
 Finally now it's all my decision
 Like it's my bat mitzvah
 Just like nothing happened
 Hell, let's have a party!
 Just like nothing happened
 Why don't you make this dumb decision yourselves?
 Okay?
 Why don't you make this dumb decision yourselves?
 We'll have the bat mitzvah
 No
 So we'll cancel the bat mitzvah
 No
 We'll wait until you make a decision
 Holding to the ground as the ground keeps shifting
 Trying to keep sane as the rules keep changing
 Keeping up my head as my heart falls out of sight
 Everything will be alright
