Sh-K-Boom Records - Cancelling the Bar Mitzvah lyrics

TRINA 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 JASON 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? MENDEL 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'll promise to go along JASON 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? MENDEL We'll have the bar mitzvah? JASON No TRINA Then, we'll cancel the bar mitzvah? JASON No! TRINA AND MENDEL We'll wait until you make a decision TRINA(spoken) Now what do we do? MENDEL 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 damned good reason And his lack of control k**s what's best in your soul And this is the start To his becoming a man TRINA Holding to the ground As the ground keeps shifting MENDEL Trying to keep sane As the rules keep changing TRINA AND MENDEL Keeping up my head As my heart falls out of sight Everything will be alright
