No Good Reason...

...is truly necessary for the basic message of this post. The reason is that requiring a "good reason" would imply that there also exist "bad reason"s and the plain fact of the matter is that what we are saying here does not need any reasoning whatsoever. Why, you ask? Well to be quite blunt, because it is fact, it is truth, it is reality, it is the very quintessence of emes, the...the...definition of veritas aequitas.

Ahhhh, so what is this message? What is this lighthouse in the turbulent harbor that is the life of some (this is a very important point, there are the few and the proud who already know what is to come below as it was with them from birth, ingrained in their subconscious)? 'Tis so hard to put into mere words...no, I believe the transmission can only be done justice in music...in song. You know what music is don't you, it's the harmonic connection between all living things (somebody please get that, it will restore my faith in the reading public). So too this...

Hey there Ser&Ez
What's it like in New York City?
I'm some hundred miles away
But still I fear for your safety
Yes I do
In Times Square someone could mug you
I swear it's true

Hey there Ser&Ez
Are interBorough calls long- distance?
How many replies to your "Good Shabbos"?
If you screamed would they listen
Do you drive?
Did that once there, and no lie
I almost died

Oh that's life in NYC
Oh that's life in NYC
Oh that's life in NYC
Oh that's life in NYC
Life in NYC

Hey there Ser&Ez
I know moving can be hard
But just believe this much
Houses in other cities all have yards
And driveways too
Livin' in a suburb neighborhood
You'd have it good

Hey there Ser&Ez
I've got so much left to say
Simple things, like Parking Lots!
Would take your breath away
And local malls! {don’t get more OOT than that!}
Even more out of love you'd fall
Movers you'd call

Oh get out of NYC
Oh that life in NYC
Oh get out of NYC
Oh that life in NYC
Life in NYC

Hundreds of miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
For the love of God walk if no other way
Your friends will all make fun of you
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have lived this way
Ser&Ez I can promise you
That by the time you get through
The world would never ever seem the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Ser&Ez
You know that I'm only kidding
Two more years and you'll be done with work
And from there you'll be history, yes it's true
I've got that much faith in you
You can move whenever you want to
Hey there Ser&Ez here's to you
This ones for you

Oh get out of NYC
Oh get out of NYC
Oh get out of NYC
Oh get out of NYC
Out of NYC

  2. I totally concur with G. What's a Clevelander doing in New York? Your life could be so much better elsewhere.

  3. If you ever consider moving anywhere, you'd need to put it on the billboards in Times Square, and by the Panasonic Jam Cam.

  4. Dear G,

    Thank you so much for the addition of the youtube video for your latest ballad. My wallet appreciates it very much.

    I have held myself back recently but there is one issue I would like to take a moment to discuss. This issue is really two-fold. You have so brazenly taken control of Ser&Ez. And I appreciate it because I no longer have to listen to Ezzie on a daily basis nudging me to post something because he has nothing/no time to post. But I am asking you to to take ownership of your postings!!! You need to answer more comments that are directed at you. Maybe I am used to Ezzie's ways....he pretty much responds to every comment someone makes. But people like to hear what you have to say back to them!
    And in addition to this....I have noticed that you enjoy....the occasional...all in good light poking fun at people. I give you so much material! Most of what I say is in jest anyway so I don't mind if you make fun of it. Show us your true colors G!

    Sincerely,
    iPaytoomuchformyhair

  6. iPay,

    Your welcome, that was the idea.

    As for "I appreciate it because I no longer have to listen to Ezzie on a daily basis".--you owe me, owe me BIG TIME.

    "people like to hear what you have to say back to them!"

    People need to raise their standards...however, let it not be said that I am closed to constructive advice.
