יש דברים שלא עושים [Yesh Dvarim Shelo Ossim] [English translation]

You don't eat before washing your hands

You don't enter The Dead Sea after shaving your legs1

You don't peel a clementine2 in a room full of people

Some things you just don't do, some things you just don't!

You don't shower without using water

I won't forget thee, O Jerusalem

You don't skip the optometrist before buying glasses

Some things you just don't do, some things you just don't!

I've been looking for something fitting

Fitting my face

Something nice

You must always respect your eyes

So I bought some glasses to see brighter

I saw with my own eyes what makes us dance

Let's raise a toast, we can see the distance

'Cause in this life, there are just things you don't do

With an optometrist

Here in the Middle East

You'll have a prefect vision

In the end, you'll see the road

I bought a pair of glasses

It isn't such a big deal

Feels bad for your eyes

So give them some respect

You don't threaten a pigeon with wine3

You don't wear sandals with socks

You don't post pictures of people eating

Some things you just don't do, some things you just don't!

I've been looking for something fitting

Fitting my face

Something nice

You must always respect your eyes

So I bought some glasses to see brighter

I saw with my own eyes what makes us dance

Let's raise a toast, we can see the distance

'Cause in this life, there are just things you don't do

With an optometrist

Here in the Middle East

You'll have a prefect vision

In the end, you'll see the road

I bought a pair of glasses

It isn't such a big deal

Feels bad for your eyes

So give them some respect

Nai nai nai nai nai

Nai nai nai nai na na na na na nai

You don't skip the optometrist before buying glasses

You don't skip the optometrist before buying glasses

Some things you just don't do when you respect your eyes

You don't buy glasses without an optometrist

1. It is also known as "THE SEA OF SALT", you don't want that on open wounds.2. Perhaps a tangerine is more well-known? But the thing here is that it produces a strong odor, which I guess most people don't like.3. Apparently this is a phrase taken from the military. It is the censored version of this original phrase; "You don't threaten a hoe with a dick", meaning a person is not frightened by something he does on the daily / very experienced at. The censorship works by replacing the letter Zayin (ז) with Yod (י), which completely changes the meaning of the words, but they still make sense. Therefore instead of "Zona" (Prostitute, hooker, whore, etc.) we get "Yona" (Pigeon, dove); and instead of "Zayin" (Dick, cock, etc.) we get "Yayin" (Wine).
