I spend my days shaking hands
Forgetting names, recycling cans
A comedian

There's trouble in our nation's capitol
My blues are black, my belly's full
A comedian is someone who tells jokes

It's lunchtime, fix a pal a drink
It's nap time, paint the casket pink

Get thee from me all half-wit/dimwit souls
Happy Hanukkah, ho-ho-ho
A comedian is someone who tells jokes
A comedian is someone who tells jokes

It's lunchtime, fix a pal a drink
It's nap time, paint the casket pink

I wrote a check to save a whale
And like I said, it's in the mail
A comedian is someone who tells jokes
