The Lyrics

Remember the '80's? Those were the days when people still could communicate without texting and before internet black Friday sales.
This song is about Andrea's Sushi Bar.
Although it really isn't Andrea's we call it that because
Andrea always goes there.
So, everybody else goes there and says it's so, like, totally bitchen.
Actually, I don't know the name - something Japanese...

You can find what you're looking for
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
All kinds of sushi and much more
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
Step right in the galleria
Right next to Kay's Jewelleri-a
( Kay's is , like, so totally gauche - those commercials,
"Every kiss begins with Kay"
And those tacky little love pendants - bag those!)
You can find what you're looking for
At Andrea's Sushi Bar.

Anyway, it was the day after Thanksgiving
Which was also the beginning of Hanukkah
We spent a loo-oong day at Grandma's
Stuffing ourselves on turkey, cranberry sauce and all the rest
Then at night it was potato latkes, matzoball soup and challah
Not to mention screaming kids playing dreidel
I thought I would never get home in time to get to bed early
So I could get up in time to go to the galleria
To buy me some Jordache jeans and stonewashed denim jackets
Which were on sale.
Friday morning I got to the galleria
Where it was so totally swarming with Christmas shoppers - oim shurr!
So I went to Andrea's Sushi Bar to hang out.
I ordered some sushi, sukiyaki and rice with teriyaki sauce
Anything I could pronounce.
So the waiter brings me rice with teriyaki sauce - after a half hour!
I started to eat when I saw the biggest...blackest...fly in my teriyaki sauce!
So I say to the waiter. "Waiter, there's a fly in my teriyaki sauce!".
The waiter says, "Flies are parve - eat it!". Total space cadet, oim shurr.
I say, "No way! Bring me another bowl or I won't leave a tip.".
Barfed out! Gag me with a spoon! Gross!
Finally, the waiter brings me another bowl of rice with teriyaki sauce.
When I dipped in my chopstick I pulled out the longest...blackest...hair!
It was grody, grody to the max!
Bag your food - I'm outta here.

You can walk right in the door
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
But look out what you're asking for
At Andrea's Sushi Bar

Don't even think about eating the blowfish!

If only I had one of Grandpa's German coins from World War ll
To leave as a tip.

You can walk right in the door
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
But look out what you ask for
At Andrea's Sushi Bar

Oh. and by the way I did find one pair
Of Jordache jeans in my size -
after waiting two more hours
There has to be a better way - oim shurr!

You can walk right in the door
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
but watch out what you're asking for
At Andrea's Sushi Bar
Come on down for a sushi snack
But be sure to watch your back
You can get what you ask for
At Andria's Sushi Bar
Even ptomaine
At Andrea's Sushi Bar.

Well, OK, but where can I go to get my poodle clipped in Burbank? 5's.

Liked--quite a bit of the spirit (and content) removed from the monologue section, but I dug the "Valley Girl" callback. After all, you would have to be insane to do the entire thing.

Thanks, Agrimorfee. This is an '80's take on the fly-in-the-soup joke. If it were as long as the original you would go blind reading it.
