SONG:Weasel And The White Boys Cool

Sal was working at nyro's nook in downtown
selling articles of congress to these people downtown
he was pretty sleezy when i met him
a weasel in a poor boy's wool
Sal lives in a black vinyl pen in new jersey
buys his meat from a whore next door
wants it rare but he gets it well
a weasel on a short order floor
So, sal, say good-bye to your mom and your dad
sal, say good-bye to the barrio
sal, say good-bye to your buddies and your pals
angela, perry and mario
Kid sinister with the bus stop blues
a quarter could take you home
a dime could make a dream come true
but a weasel ain't got a dime for the phone
( does a weasel got a dime for the phone ? )
So, sal, say good-bye to your mom and your dad
sal, say good-bye to the barrio
sal, say good-bye to your buddies and your pals
angela, perry and mario
You dancin' in the welfare lines, sal
actin' like some jerk-off fool
when we could lay out eatin' peaches on the beaches
a weasel in a white boy's cool
but we're all in a white boy's school
( just like a weasel )
