Southern Jews

I walk in and you look up from the page, and you're
Older now, but you haven't even aged
And I know I've seen that face before that your
Mother and all her great grandmothers wore in the
Warm lamplight of a European night
Before they thought that they were even white and I
Hear them sing "Eliyahu Hanavi"
I hate to say it but Elijah's kinda shitty

Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai

Four were born in the south to Polish Jews
Across the street, the country club refused them and
So they built plantations of their own
Look at 'em now with the Trump signs in their homes, and we
Drank four cups of Maneschewitz wine,
But of the questions, not one was Palestine, and we
Search for something to make us whole again
It's coming now, all we need is to begin

Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
Yai dai dai dai dai dai dai
