"He Popped Eye, His Name Was Sam"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

He popped eye, his name was Sam,
He popped eye, his name was Sam.
His blonde wife was Finnish--
No wait, she was Swedish.
He popped eye, his name was Sam.

He used words like "tuchis" when he became Jewish,
A yarmulke on his hair.
The butts, he did puff 'em, yeah, it was so much fun,
But they made him gasp for air.

Frankie and Dino and Joey and Pete, oh
They formed the rodent clan.
With their bad behavior, there was no life-saver.
Four dropped "bye"; Joey still stands.

He popped eye, his name was Sam,
He popped eye, his name was Sam.
Bad habits did finish
Him--kaput, in Yiddish.
He popped eye, his name was Sam.
