Give it to me baby (uh-huh uh-huh)
Give it to me baby (uh-huh uh-huh)
Give it to me baby (uh-huh uh-huh)
And all the girlies say I'm pretty fly
(for a white guy)
Uno, dos, tres, quatro, cinco, cinco, seis
You know it's kind of hard
Just to get along today
Our subject isn't cool
But he fakes it anyway
He may not have a clue
And he may not have style
But everything he lacks
Well, he makes up in denial
So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
Gonna play the field, keep it real
But for you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabes, so (hey, hey)
Do that brand new thing!
Give it to me baby (uh-huh uh-huh)...
He needs some cool tunes
Not just any will suffice
But they didn't have Ice Cube
So he bought Vanilla Ice
Now cruising in his pinto, he sees homies as he pass
But if he looks twice
They're gonna kick his lily ass
So don't debate, a player straight...
Now he's getting a tattoo yeah
He's gettin' ink done
He asked for a '13' but they drew a '31'
Friends say he's trying too hard
And he's not quite hip
But in his own mind
He's the, he's the dopest trip
Give it to me baby (uh-huh uh-huh)...
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis
So don't debate, a player straight...
The world loves wannabes
Let's get some more wannabes (hey, hey)
Do that brand new thing!

Veren 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)
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 them were nudniks
And none of them would last
But our new 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 iz 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)...
He shops at discount stores
Not just any will sufice
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?
On high holy days, you know he prays and prays
And he never eats pastrami on white bread 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 parents pay the moyl
And he gets to keep the tip
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 shiksas think he's swell
Show up at his home, he says shalom
And Have some cake – you want some cake?
Yah, 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!
