Literally, our pitch for a feature film about Chutzpah

lyrics

The Pitch
By Tor and David

Okay…It’s the Full Monty circumsized…

CHORUS:
It's all about the Pitch
It's the way we tell 'em
The Pitch
‘Cause you know ya gotta sell 'im
The Pitch
This is what you wanna hear
Open up your ears
Laugh and cry and wipe your tears
Listen to the Pitch
The Pitch

VERSE:
Imagine Dis
1948
The year that Israel became a state
George Segal aka Dr. Dreck
He found the beat and the beat was correct
RESPECT!

Bet you wanna know what's next?
He's Broke - uh
Down on his luck
Lightbulb! the idea struck
"Hippety Hop!
Yeah, that could make a buck!"

Long story short
Cut to the Chase
End of the day
Turns out

He found his purpose in life at a very young age!

CHORUS:
It's all about the Pitch
It's the way we tell 'em
The Pitch
‘Cause you know ya gotta sell 'im
The Pitch
This is what you wanna hear
Open up your ears
Laugh and cry and wipe your tears
Listen to the Pitch
The Pitch

VERSE:
Fast Forward to a later date
Change of scene, change of pace

Hip Hop - had become the way
And Dr. Dreck found three protégés
Tav Meshugenah and Jewdah too
A hip hop supergroup all about Jews

Are we losing you?
‘Cause here's where it gets hot
Suddenly the group was put on the spot
They hadda make a video
But they didn't have the dough
The tension builds until you feel
That they might lose their record deal

Long story short
Cut to the chase
End of the day
Turns out

Master Tav's mother played Mahjong with the mother of a Trendy Hollywood Club Owner.

VERSE:
Now it's time for the big reveal
Nobody's who you thought they were and nothing is real
It was all just a cover, a mask, a charade
While they were bustin' out tracks it was the government who paid

Special ops - needed fresh new recruits
Nobody would suspect a Jewish hip hop supergroup

Ain't that the truth - but that could also be a lie
The only thing we really know is that they're in disguise

Intrigue! Romance! Betrayal! Surprise!
Clouseau meets Bond as Jewish Hip Hop Superspies
that's right
Clouseau meets Bond as Jewish Hip Hop Superspies

CHORUS:
It's all about the Pitch
It's the way we tell 'em
The Pitch
‘Cause you know ya gotta sell 'im
The Pitch
This is what you wanna hear
Open up your ears
Laugh and cry and wipe your tears
Listen to the Pitch
The Pitch
