Allan Sherman - If I Were a Tishman (alternate version) lyrics

(parody of "If I Were A Rich Man" from Fiddler On The Roof) Oh, New York is changing Wherever you look Big tall buildings by Tishman Tishman, ahh... If I were a Tishman Yum di diddle didle doody didle diddy didy di (Yum di didle) All day long I'd buildy buildy build If I were a building man I'd build a lot of buildings Yum di didle doody deedle didle deedle didle dum (Yum di didle) Building buildings anywhere I wish If I were a Tishy Tishy Tish I'd build the 666 5th Avenue building Right in the middle of the town One block wide and forty-eight stories high And I'd have eighteen elevators going up And twenty-seven more going down All of them express to pa** you by (Di diddle di) I'd build a ladies room and also a mens room Right there on each and every floor Each one in a style that is apropos And like the restrooms in the best office buildings You'd need a key to open up the door Though who would steal a bathroom, I dunno! Oh, if I were a Tishman Yum di diddle doidle didle dadle doodle deedle dum (Yum di didle) All day long I'd buildy buildy build If I were a building man I'd build a lot of buildings Yum di doodle dadle didle deedle didle dodle dum (Yum di didle) I could realize my life's ambish Raising rents whenever I would wish Telling tenants, "You can call me pish." If I were a rich Tishman
