Well, a redneck nerd in a bowling shirt was a-guzzlin’ Lone Star beer
|
Talking religion and-uh politics for all the world to hear.
|
“They oughta send you back to Russia, boy, or New York City one
|
You just want to doodle a Christian girl and you killed God’s only son.”
|
|
I said, “Has it occurred to you, you nerd, that that’s not very nice,
|
We Jews believe it was Santa Claus that killed Jesus Christ.”
|
“You know, you don’t look Jewish,” he said, “near as I could figger
|
I had you lamped for a slightly anemic, well-dressed country nigger.“
|
|
No, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,
|
They don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
|
He started in to shoutin’ and a-spittin’ on the floor,
|
“Lord, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore.”
|
|
He says, “I ain’t a racist but Aristitle Onassis is one Greek we don’t need
|
And them niggers, Jews and Sigma Nus, all they ever do is breed.
|
And wops ‘n micks ‘n slopes ‘n spics ‘n spooks are on my list
|
And there’s one little hebe from the heart of Texas ? is there anyone I missed ? ”
|
|
Well, I hits him with everything I had right square between the eyes.
|
I says, “I’m gonna gitcha, you son of a bitch ya, for spoutin’ that pack of lies.
|
If there’s one thing I can’t abide, it’s an ethnocentric racist;
|
Now you take back that thing you said ‘bout Aristitle Onassis.”
|
|
No, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,
|
We don’t turn the other cheek the way we done before.
|
You could hear that honky holler as he hit that hardwood floor
|
“Lord, they sho’ ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore!”
|
All right!
|
|
No, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,
|
We don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
|
You hear that honky holler as he hit that hardwood floor
|
Lord, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore.
|
|
Everybody!
|
They ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,
|
They ain’t makin’ carpenters who know what nails are for.
|
Well, the whole damn place was singin’ as I strolled right out the door
|
“Lord, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore!”
|
|
No, we ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore,
|
We don’t turn the other cheek the way they done before.
|
Well, the whole damn place was singin’ as I strolled right out the door
|
“Lord, they ain’t makin’ Jews like Jesus anymore!”
