 Send "Czechoslovakia" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   one bright and sunny mornin'
down on avenue b

as i was returnin' home from a night of
debauchery

i met me landlord boris, "yo," sez he,

"would ya ever go over to czechoslovakia,

marry me daughter for me?"



he waved a pistol and 5000 dollars in me face

"she better be a virgin, when she hits the
states"

i told him i had some business with the pope in
rome

so he threw in a ticket to italy on me way back
home



would you ever go over to czechoslovakia, marry
me daughter for me

she's the finest girl in prague, you'll ever
see

her name is citizen gertie, a communist is she

she wants to come to america, be a capitalist
like me



when i landed in slovakia, i drank a dozen
pints

but when i caught a glimpse of gertie i nearly
died of fright

she was 6 feet in her stockings, she viewed me
with dismay

"is this the best they can do for me in the dear
old usa?"



but despite me splittin' headache, i wooed her
like a man

and very soon thereafter we were married in
prague

i remembered boris' pistol and me vow of
chastity

but when she pinned me to the bed that night, i
gave up instantly..



bright and early next mornin' i went to see the
pope in rome

gertie left for america, make new york her
home

she landed down on avenue b lookin' for a mansion
grand

boris was drunk, the building stunk, the city was
mad

she'd been had,

this was the height of depravity - not what she'd
seen on mtv...



i wasn't farin' much better with the holy father
in rome

some turkish wiseguy whacked him and he wasn't
even at home

so i landed back in new york oh so sad

stared down the barrel of boris's gun, jeez was
he ever mad

he accused me of buggerin' his daughter but to
make matters worse

she'd spent over 20 grand in macys and in saks

she sat there in her underwear, gave me a dirty
wink

but when i thought about the credit cards me love
began to shrink



so we drove her out to kennedy 14 trunks and
all

and we said a prayer for the holy father back in
rome

but as her plane rose over rockaway, boris he
said to me

"would you ever go over to czechoslovakia and
marry me daughter for me..."
