Anthony Rosenthal feat. Brandon Uranowitz & Stephanie J. Block - Canceling The Bar Mitzvah Lyrics

Lyrics Canceling The Bar Mitzvah - Stephanie J. Block , Anthony Rosenthal



Jason, if you want a bar mitzvah
God knows you can have a bar mitzvah
But I have to know
And I have to know now
Just what it is you want
I've addressed the invitations
Here's your chance to give me hell
If you think it's bust
Then it's probably just as well
Can't we wait 'til Whizzer gets better?
Can't we wait 'til he's out
That's what bar mitzvahs should be all about
Good friends close at hand
Don't you understand?
We can't be sure when he'll get better
When or if he'll ever get better
But the hall is booked
And the band's been retained
So, Jason, please
What we'll do is your decision
There's no right and there's no wrong
Just say yes or no
And we promise to go along
Finally now it's all my decision
Like it's my bar mitzvah
Just like nothing happened
Hell, let's have a party!
Just like nothing happened
Why don't you make this dumb decision yourselves?
Okay?
Why don't you make this dumb decision yourselves?
We'll have the bar mitzvah
No
Then we'll cancel the bar mitzvah
No
We'll wait until you make a decision
Now what do we do?
Why don't we tell him that we don't have the answers?
And that life can be grim
Life's not all about him
And things rarely go according to plan
Tell him things happen for no damn good reason
And his lack of control kills what's best in his soul
And this is the start to his becoming a man
Holding to the ground as the ground keeps shifting
Trying to keep sane as the rules keep changing
Keeping up my head as my heart falls out of sight
Everything will be alright
