Born in 1935 in Brooklyn New York
The son of Anna and Phil
At 19 years old he married my mother Judy
And immediately paid his first Bloomingdales bill
Right away they started on a family
3 smart kids popped out of mom's tummy
But then one steamy night Dad forgot to wear his raincoat
9 months later, out came the dummy
Dad was 6 foot 2 and 250 pounds
And was sweet as he was strong
He was also known to be pretty well endowed
But believe me he didn't pass that one along
I did get grandma's ass though
Oh, Stan the man was my hero
With a golf swing that made men cry
He'd take their money and put it in his top drawer
Then I'd steal it so I could get high
But he beat that habit out of me
Oh, dad thanks for letting me stay up late to watch Johnny Carson
Thanks for swimming with me at Livingston park
Thanks for telling me to always to punch a kid in the face
If he made an anti-Semitic remark
And say hi to both my grandmas and grandpas
And tell my dog meatball I miss him so
But most important dad, take advantage of being in heaven
Go bang Marilyn Monroe; Mom said its cool, just wear a raincoat
Oh, Stan the man was my hero
He still is and always will be
Cause he didn't give too much of crap about nothing
Except loving his family
Oh, Stan the man is gone
But will always live on
