lirik lagu weird al yankovic - amish paradise
as i walk through the valley where i harvest my grain
i take a look at my wife and realize she’s very plain
but that’s just perfect for an amish like me
you know, i shun fancy things like electricity
at 4: 30 in the morning i’m milkin’ cows
jebediah feeds the chickens and jacob plows… fool
and i’ve been milkin’ and plowin’ so long that
even ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
i’m a man of the land, i’m into discipline
got a bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
but if i finish all of my ch-r-s and you finish thine
then tonight we’re gonna party like it’s 1699
we been spending most our lives
living in an amish paradise
i’ve churned b-tter once or twice
living in an amish paradise
it’s hard work and sacrifice
living in an amish paradise
we sell quilts at discount price
living in an amish paradise
a local boy kicked me in the b-tt last week
i just smiled at him and turned the other cheek
i really don’t care, in fact i wish him well
’cause i’ll be laughing my head off when he’s burning in h-ll
but i ain’t never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
an amish with a ‘tude? you know that’s unheard of
i never wear b-ttons but i got a cool hat
and my homies all i agree i look good in black… fool
if you come to visit, you’ll be bored to tears
we haven’t even paid the phone bill in 300 years
but we ain’t really quaint, so please don’t point and stare
we’re just technologically impaired
there’s no phone, no lights, no motorcar
not a single luxury
like robinson crusoe
it’s as primitive as can be
we been spending most our lives
living in an amish paradise
we’re just plain and simple guys
living in an amish paradise
there’s no time for sin and vice
living in an amish paradise
we don’t fight, we all play nice
living in an amish paradise
hitchin’ up the buggy, churnin’ lots of b-tter
raised a barn on monday, soon i’ll raise anudder
think you’re really righteous? think you’re pure in heart?
well, i know i’m a million times as humble as thou art
i’m the pious guy the little amlettes wanna be like
on my knees day and night scorin’ points for the afterlife
so don’t be vain and don’t be whiny
or else, my brother, i might just have to get medieval on your heinie
we been spending most our lives
living in an amish paradise
we’re all crazy mennonites
living in an amish paradise
there’s no cops or traffic lights
living in an amish paradise
but you’d probably think it bites
living in an amish paradise
yech
