The Lyrics
Any resemblance to any person, living or dead, is purely facacta.
Finkelsteins - Meet the Finklelsteins - Such a nice suburban family,
They live - on Long Island - Own a candy store in Bayside, Queens.
You'll like Papa Moishe - what a mensch.
His wife - Is played by Leilani Wentz.
Tune in - to the Finkelsteins - You will stay glued to your TVs,
Send out for Chinese. You're in for such a time!
Finkelsteins - Still more Finkelsteins . . .
Heaven help us, we would not impose.
But you - should meet Ira - He's the image of his sister, Rose.
Shmendrick - comes to dinner in a skirt.
Moishe - says, "I'll give him such a hurt!"
Tune in - to the Finkelsteins - On a sofa you'll be stretching,
While Moishe's kvetching. You're in for such a time!
Monday - maybe Tuesday - You're collecting for the U.J.A.
Wedneday - Play canasta - With the Steins, they're from Far Rockaway.
Thursday - Rumba lessons, very nice,
Taught by - Natalie and Irving Weiss.
Friday - Watch "The Finkelsteins". Hoo-hah, we'll have a good time.
A "Here's to you" time . . . You're in for such a time!
They live - on Long Island - Own a candy store in Bayside, Queens.
You'll like Papa Moishe - what a mensch.
His wife - Is played by Leilani Wentz.
Tune in - to the Finkelsteins - You will stay glued to your TVs,
Send out for Chinese. You're in for such a time!
Finkelsteins - Still more Finkelsteins . . .
Heaven help us, we would not impose.
But you - should meet Ira - He's the image of his sister, Rose.
Shmendrick - comes to dinner in a skirt.
Moishe - says, "I'll give him such a hurt!"
Tune in - to the Finkelsteins - On a sofa you'll be stretching,
While Moishe's kvetching. You're in for such a time!
Monday - maybe Tuesday - You're collecting for the U.J.A.

Taught by - Natalie and Irving Weiss.

A "Here's to you" time . . . You're in for such a time!

Where you been? I missed you so much I thought I was gonna plotz!
Not familiar with the show, but nice job.
Rick, I've been camped out on your parody page, just a-laughin' 'til my sides ached! I was toying with "They're Coming To Take Me Away Ah-Ha" this week, as well. Funny how our starting points are often the same - then I turn right, down Allen Sherman Street, and you take a hard left on Frank Zappa Avenue.
SO RAD
