Lyrics

Believe it or not, I recorded this one before the explosion of Chaputzvah.

Since I am a rich man
Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum.
All day long just yacking with Wilbon
That’s made me a wealthy man

I never have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
When they threw that money from the train
I made sure to grab it with both hands

I’ve got a great big house that’s out in Rehobeth
Perfect for grilling at the beach
Pretty sweet for a guy who’s a talk show host
It has an elevator, just since I can,
Plastered with all my golfing kitsch
And what I deal I got on my windows!

Lord who made me balder than a clam
I’ll take all the free stuff that I can
Though to some it seems like it’s a scam
I am still a wealthy man
