Stan The Man Lyrics - Adam Sandler

1 Born in nineteen thirty-five in Brooklyn, NY

2 Son of Anna and Phil

3 At nineteen years old he married my mother Judy

4 And immediately paid his first Bloomingdale's bill

5 Right away they started on a family

6 Three smart kids popped out of mom's tummy

7 But then one steamy* night dad forgot to wear his raincoat

8 Nine months later out came the dummy

9 But he took care of me

10 Oh, 'Stan the Man' was my hero

11 The coolest guy ever, I swear

12 He stayed up all night making me a clay volcano

13 That's how I won the science fair

14 He was 6'2, 200 and 50 lbs.

15 And as sweet as he was strong

16 He was also known to be pretty well endowed

17 But believe me he didn't pass that one along

18 His fav'rite singers were Leo Red Bone and Johnny Cash

19 His favorite ball players were Koufax and Micky

20 His favorite restaurant was the state's delicatessen

21 His favorite movie was 'Little Nicky'

22 Sorry 'Godfather I and II'

23 Maybe next time

24 Yeah, 'Stan the Man' was my hero

25 With a golf swing that made me cry

26 He'd take their money and put it in his top dresser drawer

27 Then I'd steal it so I could get high...

28 But he ... beat that habit ... out of me

29 So dad,

30 Thanks for letting me stay up late to watch Johny Carson

31 Thanks for coaching all our games in Livingston Park

32 Thanks for telling me to always punch a kid in the face

33 If he made an anti-Semitic remark

34 Yeah, and don't worry 'bout mom

35 We'll always look after her

36 Me, Scott, Val, Liz, and the grandkids

37 And when Jackie and I have children of our own

38 We'll try to raise them just the way you did

39 So say 'hi' to both my grandmas and grandpas

40 Tell my dog, Meatball, I miss him so

41 But most important, take advantage of being in heaven

42 And go bang Marilyn Monroe

43 Mom said it's cool ... just wear a raincoat

44 Oh, 'Stan the Man' was my hero

45 Still is and always will be

46 'Cause he didn't give too much crap about nothin'

47 Except loving his family

48 Well 'Stan the Man' is gone*

49 But will always live on*
