Suzi from Israel sells the lotion Suzi from Israel's all I need If I could hold those hebrew hands, So soft and moisturized by the dead sea sands I'd forget all my years of misery Oh Suzi, don't go back, to tel-aviv Stay here, in america with me We can find a place in washington d.c. Not far at all from the Chesapeake Im taking Suzi out to a real nice gun range We'll fall in love to the sounds of the shotgun spray But if you gotta go back to your homeland, to fight the infidel Suzi I'll understand I loved you once, and that was enough for me Oh Suzi, don't go back to the warzone I can give you the loveliest jewish home With Moisha and Zisi* runnin Brave and wild in the land of the free. Oh Suzi, don't go back to tel-aviv Stay here, in philly with me and We can surely find a place that's nicer than the ones that you've seen on tv And you'll forget about the other men Who couldn't love you for religious reasons or Military conscription, pullin Those wild hearts, in separate directions.

The Office 03:02
I don't think that the boss man likes the way I work. Says I'm late, and I'm lazy and I look like a jerk. And I should shave And put on a cleaner shirt for fuck's sake. I guess I don't gotta dig the car out now since they went and fired me I'll tell Candace, in Marketing to take her normal route next week. Cause I don't need a ride to the office if the office don't need me. I don't really like to drive when it's dangerous Roads are pretty treacherous But the bossman don't give a shit. He says I want you in, well if I crash will you pay for it? I'm desperate, strapped for cash And I can't afford another accident. It's a lot to risk, just to waste my day away at the office. I don't think I'm gonna do a single thing, today but lay in bed I'm far too depressed, to get dressed, what's the point of it anyway? I'm gonna take my time, and try to sleep away all of my regret. Waitin' for the bus to come, and take me somewhere new Shake hands with the new bossman and tell him all that I can do And all I did Why I'd be good for the position. Throw in all my chips, just to waste my day away in the office. It's a lot to risk, just to waste my life away in the office.
