I’M TOO SEXY (FOR MY PROSTATE)

(sung to the melody of “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred’s Fred Fairbrass, Richard Fairbrass, and Rob Manzoli)

“I’m too Jewish to be healthy

Too Jewish to be healthy

And damn,

I’m not even wealthy.”

I’m too sexy for my prostate

Too sexy for my prostate

It hurts

IT HURTS

I’m too hot for high blood pressure

Too hot for high blood pressure

But do I

have it?

Yessir.

I’m too cute to have arthritis

Too cute to have arthritis

And chronic

Bursitis

I’m a Rabbi with a distended spleen

And I moan in discomfort at the doctor

Yeah, at the doctor

At the doctor

Who’s not even on my HMO (the bastard!)

I’m too sexy for glaucoma

Too sexy for glaucoma

And yet

I’ve got

Glaucoma

I’m too sexy for skin cancer

Too sexy for skin cancer

And yet

There’s me-

lanoma

I got GERD, which is a reflux disease

And I suffer burning diarrhea

Yeah, diarrhea

Diarrhea

Yeah I shake my aching tush with diarrhea

I’m too sensual for strep
Too sensual for strep

But do I

Have it?

Yep.

I got gout, and my foot’s turning green

And I’m paying extra for a CAT scan

Yeah, a CAT scan

Oy, a CAT scan

I’m gonna take another turn under the CAT scan.

Still, my doctor says I’m fine

The doctor says I’m fine

I say, the quack

Is lyin’

Every day I’m feeling worse

My body is a curse

You’ll find me lying in Baron Hirsch

I’m too Jewish to survive!

JERREE

(Music & Lyrics: David Lefkowitz. To be sung in the voice of a spastic)

Jerree!

Jerry Lewis!

When you gonna let me in your house?

Jerry!

Jerry Lewis!

I will be as quiet as a mouse.

I just want cookies and pie

You are my favorite guy!

Jerry!

Jerry Lewis!

I just love to watch you on TV

Jerry!

Jerry Lewis!

Maybe you can find a room for me

You said that I was your buddy

Why are you treating me cruddy?

Oh-woe

You have done so much for all the kids

Even ones who flop around like squids

Just because I live inside a chair

Doesn’t mean I can’t go everywhere

When my last treatment is through

Why can’t I come live with you?

Oh-woe

You could sing and do a funny dance

You could teach me how to change my pants

I could be your bestest bestest bro

Like I was when I was on your show

Jerry!

Jerry Lewis!

How come you don’t answer my postcards?

Jerry!

Jerry Lewis!

Maybe you don’t really like retards

Jerry

Jerry (fade out)

SHAVING CREAM 2016

(Lyrics: David Lefkowitz. Music: Benjamin Samberg’s (aka Benny Bell’s) “Shaving Cream.”)

I have a sad story to tell you

It may hurt your feelings a bit

The USA held its elections

And stepped in a big pile of

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

Ted Cruz was a loser and then some

He’d always get into a snit

The Democrats thought he was garbage

His own party thought he was

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

They thought Marco Rubio perfect

Hispanic and friendly and fit

But then he behaved like a robot

And Trump came and dumped him in

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

Republicans needed a leader

And they thought that Jeb Bush would fit

But then they remembered his brother

Who gave us all eight years of

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

So Donald and Hillary battled

They sniped back and forth quite a bit

But she assumed people were cattle

Which mired her ground game in

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

The media sneered at the Donald

They called him a Twittering twit

They told him the polls had him losing

He told them to eat their own

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

And now, folks, this country had ended

I think it is time we should quit

The civilized world is upended

And stuffed in a barrel of

Shaving Cream

Be nice and clean

Shave every day and you’ll always look keen.

Dave’s Gone By Song (7/9/2016): DEEP IN THE HEART OF DALLAS

Dave sings his socio-political ditty, “Deep in the Heart of Dallas.”

DEEP IN THE HEART OF DALLAS

Oh the moon shone bright on a hot July night
Deep in the heart of Dallas
The crowd turned out to holler and shout
Deep in the heart of Dallas

They came in peace to protest police
Deep in the heart of Dallas
`Cause if you’re brown, you’ll get shot down
Pretty much anywhere, not just Dallas

Baton Rouge’s best shot a black in the chest
Deep in Louisiana
The gun was in his pocket, but the cops just said, “aw, fuck it!”
Deep in Louisiana

A few hours later in St. Paul, Minnesater
A guy and gal were drivin’
A zealous cop made them come to a stop
They thought that he was jivin’

The fuzz did shout, “Your taillight is out!
Let’s see your registration.”
He meant no harm, but he shot up the guy’s arm.
Which caused some consternation.

With two blacks dead all the people said,
“Out in the streets we’ll gather,
We’ll show the fuzz what a movement does:
Hashtag – Black Lives Matter.”

But one lone man had a bigger plan
Deep in the heart of Dallas
His name was Micah
And whites? He no like-ah
Deep in the heart of Dallas

Feelin’ low and mean with a full magazine
Deep in the heart of Dallas
He aimed real well, and the bodies fell
Deep in the heart of Dallas

A robot bomb blew his ass to kingdom come
Deep in the heart of Dallas
But not before he wounded seven more
Deep in the heart of Dallas

Now the cops hate blacks and the blacks hate them back
And nothing’s gonna stop it
And that is what we’re stuck with.
Each one thinks that the other one stinks
And boy, you better not fuck with.

The victims wail when the systems fail
Deep in the heart of America
It’s just another day in the good ol’ USA
Deep in the heart of America.
