Intro:

(Fiddler on the roof playing)

Mazel tov? mazel tov my right shnukel

Jew pac kosher- bring da noise

ja ja-ja ja ja jewish

never been anything other then Jewish

back in the day me homie, yoseph an I

we got taught to honor parents, and never lie

they taught us about Moses and the evil pharaoh

running around the desert I heard escape was narrow

I got real caught up in jew shit- you know doing good deeds

sooner then I know I got my portion to read

after the bar mitzvah I got cash in town,

Saturday nights the party we jews know how to get down

limbo games chicken dance and my DJ' spinning

Jewish foods jewish cloths and those jewish women

(Corus)

I'm living life on the east side

Growin up jew

cut my challah wit a big knife

growin up jew

when the holy ones my main dog

growin up jew

Im the king of the synagogue

growing up jew

but long since then since I dropped my yamaka

I only stick around for presents on the eight days of Hanukkah

and not to long ago to my mamas horror

I said I dont like temple, and I don't like torah

I wouldn’t say she was shocked, or even amazed

she just said with a sigh "Oy you boys these days

but I still got mad relatives grab my cheeks and speak Yiddish

I still know the prayers and I still know the kiddish

I'll never forget those days cause I aint no Foo

and I'll still go to temple cause my drug dealers a Jew

(Corus)

I'm living life on the east side

Growin up jew

cut my challah wit a big knife

growin up jew

when the holy ones my main dog

growin up Jew

I’m the king of the synagogue

growing up Jew

my rabbi knows

shit even I know

I put the jew in jewlry I was made to shine

Made to eat latkes made to praise divine

I’m a bad jewish gangster but my rabbi never know

It’s not thou shall not deal so I’m raking in dough

But once now and again a commandment must be broken

I aint scared to leave you cold with your words half spoken

God forbid it ever has to come to that

You just keep paying the bills and not playing a rat

(Corus)

I'm living life on the east side

Growin up jew

cut my challah wit a big knife

growin up jew

when the holy ones my main dog

growin up jew

Im the king of the synagogue

growing up jew
