Caravan Petrol / I want control / Nissan Patrol Remote control / Caraca-racara... / Caravan Petrol Oy isn’t it an oily planet? /Money feeds the oily expectations of the oil-consuming nations / Leads to global exploitation / I used to be a motherfucker, not knowing what to do in life/I was looking for sensation / In the army of salvation/ But they didn’t have a clue/If only they would see/ How clean the world could be/If they just exchanged the oil for solar energy / Wouldn’t it be nice? / If I went to paradise / Leaving earth a better place /Unspoiled by human race / I used to be a motherfucker /Not knowing what to do in life / I was living in disguise / And was hiding from my wife / Desperately wandering in the desert/Trying to purify some water/ But instead I met the daughter / Of the Sheik who owned the well / Well well well well! Fatima Morgana / I showed her my banana / We listened to Santana / This desert is Nirvana / Fatima Morgana /Was licking my banana / Erupting a Fontana / Her Papa was in oil / oyoyoyoyoy Oil /I start to like the goil He needed the sheik’s water/ But instead I fucked his daughter / Now the sheik he wants to slaughter / Everyone who fucks his girl / A little defloration /That was such a big sensation / Had to take her for my wife / To escape her Papa’s knife / Kni kni kni kni kni knife / The best chance of my life! (instrumental intermezzo) If only it could be / That the oil belonged to me / I would sell this whole Nirvana / And end my misery / Be rich eternally / Fuck solar energy / And all humanity / If only they could see / That the king of oil is me / And my oily queen is Fati.. Fatima Morgana/ Ala ala ala / I want her Papa’s car / I’m going to be a star/ I don’t give a shit about pollution / Only the petrol distribution / Is the only right solution / Stop this eco-revolution

Sitting in my back yard /Everyone’s here / Trying to get the fire start / Listening to my friends fart / Uzi gets stoned / Moishe likes beer / Uzi’s wife wished he had Moishe’s career/ Mama is excited - I’m feeling so alone / Watching my dogs - chewing on a bone/ My lips are swollen and my head is numb / The sun is boiling /I had too much rum Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - what more do I need? Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy a mechaye - is it guilt, is it greed? It couldn’t be much better / There’s pressure in my chest / Everyone is boring / The dogs are depressed Never wanted to become one of those / Why are the kids always pulling my nose? The drinks are warm / The girls are lame / The guys are laughing, I am getting insane/ Life is too long / And it’s mostly cruel / My prostata is burning /I wish I had a pool/ Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - what more do I need / Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - is it guilt, is it greed? Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - what more do I need? Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - is it guilt, is it greed? I wonder why the women that I love / Always have to live with the men I hate/ Maybe a fancy house is enough / To make them believe that these shmocks are great/ I’m asking for a hand, doing me a favor / But she’s always busy with her pussy-shaver/ I should’ve sticked to my family’s taboo – / “Never mar ry a woman uglier than you” Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - what more do I need? Meat, heat – beautiful feet / Oy, a mechaye - is it guilt, is it greed? Suddenly everyone’s a little bit stressed / The neighbor’s daughter is practically undressed But I will stick to the rules of the game /’ Cause "EDIPUSSY" is my second name

I am so desperate / I cannot separate / Just don’t know what to do / It’s not my fault, That you confuse me / And you - you confuse me too Is it possible ?/ You think there’s someone else / And it tears my heart in two / You must believe it / For me there’s only one / And that’s you, you and you You got to choose / You just have to decide / You got to choose / Which one of us is right, is right, is right You say you love me/ But you don’t trust me / You say I have to decide / I would do anything /But my love for you / I can never divide / You don’t believe me / You misconceive me / What do you think I do? / I am not ambivalent / There’s no equivalent / To either one of you You got to choose / You just have to decide / You got to choose / Which one of us is right, is right, is right Misty psychics, psychiatrists and my cleaning woman, too /They do all agree / Unequivocally / That I am crazy about you / In my diary / In my testament / And my shopping list too / This one and only line / I never redefine / Just says you, you and you You got to choose / You just have to decide / You got to choose / Which one of us is right, is right, is right If I must choose / There’s no doubt what to do / If I must choose / My choice is you, you and you

Why can’t I get just one kiss? / Why can’t I get just one kiss? / Believe me there’s something I wouldn’t miss, but I look at your pants and I need a kiss. Why can’t I get just one screw? / Why can’t I get just one screw? / Believe me I know what to do, but something won’t let me make love to you. Why can’t I get just one fuck? / Why can’t I get just one fuck? / I guess it’s got something to do with luck, but I’ve waited my whole life for just one... Day after day I get angry and I will say / that the day is in my sight, when I’ll take a bow / And say good night. Oh ma ma ma ma ma Mom / Have you kept an eye, an eye on your son / I know you’ve got problems/ You’re not the only one, when your sugar left / he left you on the run. Oh ma ma ma ma ma Maminyu Take a good look what your boy has done / He’s walking around like he’s number one / He went downtown and got him a gun. Don’t shoot shoot shoot that thing at me / Don’t shoot shoot shoot that thing at me / You know you’ve got my sympathy, but / don’t shoot shoot shoot that thing at me. Oh ma ma ma ma ma ma Mother / I would love to love you lover / The city’s restless, it’s ready to pounce / Here in your bedroom ounce for ounce. Oh ma ma ma ma ma ma ma Maminyu / I would love to love you lover / The city’s restless, it’s ready to pounce. / Here in your bedroom ounce for ounce. I am giving you decisions to make, things to lose, things to take / Just as he’s about ready to cut it up, / I said “wait a minute honey, I am gonna add it up” Add it up Add it up Add it up... Day after day I get angry and I will say / that the day is in my sight, when I’ll take a bow / And say good night.

about

Jewish Monkeys Tel Aviv, Israel

Jewish Monkeys are a wacky Kleizmer-Rock/Pop burlesque band from Tel Aviv. Their story begins way back in the 1970's, when two of their singers meet in the Frankfurt Synagogue boy's choir and became best friends forever. Three decades later, joined by a third member, they become the deliciously irreverent trio they are today, dubbed The Jewish Monkeys.
