Bag O' Money
When in my old home,
Land speculators and
real estate companies
knocked on my door
every day
Mostly Israelies or
Russian Jews,
They always had a lot to say
There were various attempts
to bribe me
Some quite inventive,
as you'll see
One of those, an agent
showed up with a shopping
bag full of cash!!
It's a miracle that I
didn't take it and to
the bank dash!
Now, to a guy down
on his luck
This temptation was
hard to duck
But I somehow did
Too this day I wonder
where he learned
such a trick
An Israeli intelligence
schtick?
They tried booze, women
and so much more,
Until I learned not
to answer the door
