Lyrics

Sal was working at nyro's nook in downtown
Selling articles of congress to these people downtown
He was pretty sleezy when I met him
A weasel in a poor boy's wool

Sal lives in a black vinyl pen in new jersey
Buys his meat from a whore next door
Wants it rare but he gets it well
A weasel on a short order floor

So, sal, say good-bye to your mom and your dad
Sal, say good-bye to the barrio
Sal, say good-bye to your buddies and your pals
Angela, perry and mario

Kid sinister with the bus stop blues
A quarter could take you home
A dime could make a dream come true
But a weasel ain't got a dime for the phone
( does a weasel got a dime for the phone ? )

So, sal, say good-bye to your mom and your dad
Sal, say good-bye to the barrio
Sal, say good-bye to your buddies and your pals
Angela, perry and mario

You dancin' in the welfare lines, sal
Actin' like some jerk-off fool
When we could lay out eatin' peaches on the beaches
A weasel in a white boy's cool
But we're all in a white boy's school
( just like a weasel )
