adam grupper - pulvermacher lyrics

[maurice pulvermacher, spoken]
kids today, you know what they all wanna be?
flash golden, fly a rocket to the moon
when i was a kid, there was this new idea, the sky scr+per
that was a rocket to the moon for me
so one day
i told my old man that’s what i was gonna be when i grew up
a guy who made up buildings
great, big, special buildings
“an architect,” he said
i didn’t know the word, but i said, “sure, that’s it”
and then he asked me, did i know how many architects in america were jews?
and i said, no, i didn’t
and he said he did, none
that in america, being an architect was like bеing in a club
a club with a sign hung on the door
“no jews allowed”
hе said, that in america, there were a lot of things jews weren’t allowed to do
and a list, a short list, of things they were
and then, he wrote me out that list and told me to pick something
which i did
an i’ve been doing that thing i picked my whole life
with two ideas in mind, to get rich and to get even
which, at some point, i realized, were actually the same thing
life’s what it is, i’ve got no complaints
although, if for some reason i have to walk past the chrysler building
i keep my eyes on the sidewalk
