lyrics

Novelty Group
By Tor and David

VERSE:
So our album been out a year now, uh
And our tracks are blowin' up in here now, uh
The papers pickin' up the quotes now, uh
And we be gettin' paid like (high class) ho's now, uh

We had a hit wid Chanukah's Da Bomb now, uh
Hit radio in twenty states now
They be spinnin' what me made in da video
Only hip hop Chanukah in da city-o

But it's never enough 'cause critics be crackin'
It's never aiight when da white boyz is braggin'
And it's even worse 'cause my name is Tav, not Ice
I even challenged Eminen to a fight

CHORUS:
But we're a novelty group , right
Dat's what some is sayin'
We're a novelty group
Dat's who da label been payin'
Just a quick in and out layin' down a rhyme
This album's aiight, let's see if there's a next time

VERSE:
Got a write up in the NY Times Now, uh
Rolling Stone even laughed at our rhymes now, uh
Did the grind on Good Day NY now, uh
Got the love from the HBO now, uh

Why are people always tryin ta compare us - yeah
Roy Trakin even tried to scare us - yeah
50 shekl really wanted to convert us - uh?
Why do all the Jewish rappers wanna hurt us? ohhhhh!

And what about the Beastie's - hey are you guys retired?
I heard your license to ill just up and expired
You're fired! Just like on the Apprentice
We're Chutzpah and Dr. Dreck sent us!

CHORUS:
‘Cause we're a novelty group, right
Dat's what some is sayin'
We're a novelty group
Dat's who da label been payin'
Just a quick in and out layin' down a rhyme
This album's aiight, let's see if there's a next time

VERSE:
Call us what you want - sticks and stones
We're not goin' away - we're even on your cellphones
Ringtones...ringin' off our hooks
We be bagging the cash like a couple o'crooks

So believe this - though it sounds like hype -
Word (true that!)- it's all there in black and white
We're even livin' large on our MySpace site
We got so many friends - we must be doin' something right

BRIDGE:
You don't wanna admit it but ya like us
Ya tries us...ya buys us
You don't wanna admit it but ya like us
You won't ever be able to denies us

You don't wanna admit it but ya like us
Ya tries us...ya buys us
You don't wanna admit it but ya like us
You won't ever be able to denies us

VERSE:
One last thing that goes without saying
If you like tight beats than keep us playing
Novelty or not - you know it's all good!
Everybody shout out for the Jews in the Hood!


BREAK:
Jews in the Hood! Jews in the Hood!
Everybody shout out for the Jews in the Hood!
Jews in the Hood! Jews in the Hood!
Everybody shout out for the Jews in the Hood!

CHORUS:
‘Cause we're a novelty group, right
Dat's what some is sayin'
We're a novelty group
Dat's who da label been payin'
Just a quick in and out layin' down a rhyme
This album's aiight, let's see if there's a next time
