that ain't gonna work on saturday

I’m MC Gedalya Goomber
I’m shady, white and slim
On shabbos day I serve Hashem
By resting just like Him
On weekdays I'm freestyling
It’s like I’ll never quit
But both my eyelids start to droop
When the Shabbos lights are lit

chorus:
Ain’t gonna work on Saturday
Ain’t gonna work on Saturday
Double, double, triple pay
Won’t make me work on Saturday
Ain’t gonna work on Saturday
It’s shabbos kodesh

One time I was a rabbi
And on the seventh day
My congregants expected me
To get up there and pray
But I was busy resting
I’d fallen fast asleep
So everyone got up and went
To the shul accross the street

(chorus)

One time I was a doctor
A famous specialist
US News and World Report
Even put me on their list
On shabbos someone called me
I didn’t get the phone
I told him he should take two pills
And call me Yom Rishon

(chorus)

I once was an explorer
To Africa I went
One day three sleepy lions
Came snoring around my tent
My assistant held my rifle
“Yo Goomber, shoot those pests!”
But I invited them inside
To get some shabbos rest

(chorus)
