The Brews

The Brews

"The Brews" is a song by NOFX from the 1994 album "Punk in Drublic". It is a tongue-in-cheek song that subverts the Oi! genre, a form of music popular among many types of skinheads. The song lionizes Jews and contains numerous laudatory references to Jewish culture. The term "Oy" in Yiddish (which sounds similar to the word "Oi!") is a commonly-used interjection expressing mild frustration or concern.

Lyrics

Friday night we'll be drinkin' Manischewitz, goin' out to terrorize goyim
Stompin' shegetz, screwin' shiksas, as long as we're home by Saturday mornin'

'Cause hey, we're the Brews,sportin' anti-Swastika tattoos — Oi! Oi!
We're the boys, the Orthodox, Hasidic, O.G. Ois

Orthopedic Dr. Martens good for waffle-makin', kickin' through the shin
Reputation gained through intimidation, pacifism no longer tradition

'Cause hey, we're the Brews, sportin' anti-Swastika tattoos — Oi! Oi!
We're the Brews, the Fairfax ghetto boys, skinhead Hebrews

We've got the might, we're psycho meshuggahnas
We can't lose a fight as we are the chosen ones
Chutzpah-driven, we battle then we feast
We celebrate, we separate our milk plates from our meat

We're the Brews, sportin' anti-Swastika tattoos (Oi! Oi!)
We're the boys, the Orthodox, Hasidic, O.G. Ois

Dai Dayenu...
