Fat and weak, what a disgrace. |
|
Guess the champ got too lazy. |
|
Ain't gonna fly now, he's just takin' up space. |
|
Sold his gloves, threw his eggs down the drain. |
|
But he's no bum, he works down the street. |
|
He bought the neighborhood deli. |
|
Back on his feet, now he's choppin' up meat. |
|
Come inside, maybe you'll hear him say: |
|
Try the rye or the kaiser, |
|
They're on special tonight. |
|
If you want, you can have an appetizer. |
|
You might like our salami, and the liver's all right. |
|
And they'd really go well with the rye, |
|
Or the kaiser. |
|
Never eats while on the job. |
|
He heard it's good to stay hungry. |
|
But he makes a pretty mean shish kabob. |
|
Have a taste, they were made fresh today. |
|
Try the rye or the kaiser or the wheat or the white. |
|
Maybe I can suggest an appetizer. |
|
Stay away from the tuna, it smells funny tonight. |
|
But you just can't go wrong with the rye, |
|
Or the kaiser. |
|
So today, his deli comes first. |
|
Still he dreams of his past days of glory. |
|
Goes in the back and beats up on the liverwurst, |
|
All the while you can still hear him say: |
|
It's the rye or the kaiser, it's the thrill of one bite. |
|
Let me please be your catering advisor. |
|
If you want substitutions, |
|
I won't put up a fight. |
|
You can have your roast beef on the rye, |
|
Or the kaiser. |
|
The rye or the kaiser, |
|
The rye or the kaiser, |
|
The rye or the kaiser... |
