Pretty Fly (For a Rabbi) - Weird Al

Vern zol fun dir a blintsa



(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

And all the goyim say I'm pretty fly for a rabbi



Meccha leccha hi, meccha hiney hiney ho



Our temple's had a fair share of rabbis in the past

But most of'em were nudniks and none of'em would last

But ournew guy's real kosher, I think he'll do the trick

I tell ya, he's to die for - he really knows his shtick



So how's by you? Have you seen this Jew?

Reads the Torah, does his own accounting too

Working' like a dog at the synagogue

He's there all day, he's there all day

Just say "Vay is mir!" and he'll kick into gear

He'll bring you lots of cheer and maybe bagels with some shmeer

Just grab your yarmulka and

Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing!



(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

And all the goyim say I'm pretty fly (for a rabbi)



He shops at discount stores, not just any will suffice

He has to find a bargain 'cause he won't pay retail price

He never acts meshugga and he's hardly a schlemiel

But if you wanna haggle, oy, he'll make you such a deal!



People used to scoff, now they say "Mazel tov!"

He's such a macher 'cause he worked his tuchis off

Yeah, he keeps his cool and teaches shul

What's not to like? What's not to like?

Oh high holy days, you know he prays and prays

And he never eats pastrami on white break with mayonnaise

Put on your yarmulka and

Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing!



When he's doing a Bar Mitzvah, now that you shouldn't miss

He'll always shlep on down for a wedding or a briss

They say he's got a lot of chutzpah, he's really quite hhhhhip

The parnets pay the moyl and he gets to keep the tip!



(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!

(How ya doin', Bernie?) Oy vey, oy vey!



Meccha leccha hi, meccha meccha cholly ho



He's doin' well, I gotta kvell

The yentas love him, even shicksas think he's swell

Show up at his home, he says, "Shalom!"

And "Have some cake-You want some cake?"

Yeah he calls the shots, we really love him lots

Oy gevalt, I'm so ferklempt that I could plotz!

So grab your yarmulka--

The one you got for Chanukah--

Let's put on our yarmulkas and--

Hey! Hey! Do that Hebrew thing
