Let’s tour Boro Park its
Not big on flea markets
It’s gotten very fancy in 1994
We’re on a tour this morning
But listen to this warning
You’re in for a shock like
You’ve never had before
It’s really quite fantastic
They’ve covered it with plastic
The streetlamps all are gone now
There’s crystals chandeliers
You wanna buy a house here
You’ll have to hock your spouse here
The prices have gone crazy
In just the past 10 years
Let’s stop here just a minute
This store has something in it
A tallis with an atorah
of fourteen karat gold
And here’s a tallis beitel
To match your shvigger’s sheitel
They’re both bedecked with diamond studs
They’re genuine I’m told
LALALALALALALALALA
Perhaps you’ll think it’s horrible
The roads are paved with marble
The sewers cover’s finished
In gleaming silver plate
And note beneath your feet now
There’s carpet on the street now
The pile is plush and thick
And for shopping it’s just great
Now if your ready mentally
Please park your Rolls or Bentley
And come with me we’re gonna
Go visiting a shul
This one’s just a shteeble
The decor is quite feeble
Imagine just a sauna
And no olympic pool
And unzer shainer yidden
Are really quite tzufreiden
With living here in galus
They really should atone
When mashiach’s shofar’s blowing
They’ll tell him “we’re not going
We have found the promised land
So please leave us alone!”
