Joe Sitt is a man

who’s been buying up the land

for redevelopment and renewal

Joe made it big you know

sellin’ big women clothes

And he’s got big plans for Coney Island, too

Joe bought up Coney Isle

said he played there as a child

paid 100 million bucks or more

that sure is a lot of dough

to have a “sandbox” all your own

I hope he don’t charge us to play down by the shore

Have you seen the plans

for the hotel by the Coney sands?

It’s a sight to see, oh my oh my

pyrotechnic elephants, go for a ride in the flying blimp

And somethin’ about a big ol’ indoor waterslide

Well I don’t know about you,

but I like my ocean blue.

I like my sand without broken glass.

How can ya tell, how can ya tell

a hotel’ll make Coney Island well?

How can ya tell it’ll attract more or less trash?
