| 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’d 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 a phone in my hand
|
| Like an 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 shit
|
| 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 RV, 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 say, «Draw a bead and shoot»
|
| I’m your Hebrew slave at your service
|
| Just tell me what to do
|
| I’d 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 |
