Subject: Six Foot Two, Eyes of Blue parody
From: John-S
Date: 07 Jul 02 - 01:34 PM

Does anyone have the lyrics of a song which begins

Six foot two, eyes of blue Everybody's favourite Jew. Has anybody seen J.C. ?

I have no idea who wrote it or recorded it, but I've heard it sung by Eric Cuthbertson from Paisley.

Here's a fragment I recall from my 8 years of Catholic seminary - just a bit different from verses that are in the DT.
-Joe Offer-
    Five foot nine, he's divine
    Changes water into wine
    Has anybody seen my Lord

    Ain't he neat, ain't he cool,
    Walkin 'cross my swimmin' pool
    Has anybody seen my Lord?

Also note this verse, which somebody sent privately:

When I learned it back in the early 60's it was:

Five Foot Nine, Looks divine
Says he comes from Palestine
Has anybody seen my Lord?

Long brown hair... Button Nose
Hebrew? Yep he's one of those...
Has anybody seen my Lord?

Well if you run into a five foot Jew...
Don't nail him down...
He's so neat.. He's so cool... He can save your town...

Virgin Mary she's the most

My recollection was
Six foot two eyes of blue, walks across your swimming pool has anybody seen my Lord?
He's so neat. He's so fine, changes water into wine.
Has anybody seen my Lord?
I learned it in circa 1955-1956 from Pat Proft who later became a major comedy writer/producer (Naked Gun, Hot Shots, Police Academy etc.) I'll ask him if he wrote it. I went to Catholic grade school with him.

Though it doesn't quite fit this thread, I'd like to offer something we used to sing in the 50s which went :-

Five foot four, fat galore,
when she walks she rocks the floor -
has anybody seen my gal?
Two left feet, eyes that meet,
but she's got that rock-n-roll beat -
has anybody seen my gal?

Now when she reads a book she cannot look
at the bottom of the pages,
there's so much size between her eyes
she hasn't seen her feet for ages;
every night she holds me tight and I'm completely out of sight -
has anybody seen my gal?

Well if you run into a little Jew

Has anybody seen our Lord.

He is neat, He is Boss,
He can carry his own cross.

And if you run into a screaming Jew,
Prophesying,
Don't be bored, he's the Lord
He's the one who saves us all.

He is neat, He is cool.
He can walk across the pool.

Heals the sick

And his girlfriend is a whore

Sits on rocks
Talks a lot
Raises kids from cemetery plots

And to end it, after the last "Has anybody seen J.C.?" get down on a knee and sing (more slowly):
Not since ascension.

A Cobourg lawyer, Brad Halls and a Cobourg Doctor, Paul Caldwell, wrote this parody soon after Canada's official conversion to the metric system:

She's a centimetre shorter than a metre and a quarter,
And ev'ry millimetre is in perfect working order,
Has anybody seen my gal?

I know I'm only human but I still have the acumen
To know her eyes are flashing 'bout a half a million lumen,
Has anybody seen my gal?

A pair of gorgeous gams on her fifty kilograms
When she twirls her skirts.
My chest just thumps and my heart rate jumps
About a hundred kilohertz!

But Fahrengrade or Centiheit,
She's gonna light my fire tonight,
Has anybody seen my gal?

Six Foot Two, Eyes of Blue: music by Percy Weinrich/Ray Henderson;
new lyrics by Sandy Pliskin, 2016


Six foot two, eyes of blue
He'll cheat me and he'll cheat you
Donald Trump is not your pal

He's abrupt, he's corrupt,
Hires you, then won't pay up
Donald Trump is not your pal

He lost a billion bucks, went bankrupt
Didn't pay no tax
His school's a fraud, (he) shames women's bod(ies)
Wouldn't rent out space to blacks

Coochie coo, he'll grope you
Mocks disabled people too
Donald Trump is not my
Donald Trump is not your
Donals Trump is not our pal.

It6 seems that there are lots of versions. The one I learned from a Unitarian minister in the mid-1970's goes---

Five foot nine, He's divine
Changes water into wine
Has anybody seen my Lord?

He's real neat, He's real cool,
He'll walk across your swimming pool,
Has anybody seen my Lord?

Now if you run into a bearded Jew
Healing the sick
It's no joke, touch his cloak,
He will heal you double quick.

Oh, it's been said he'll raise the dead,
And, Oh, what He can do with bread
Has anybody seen my, anybody seen my,

The lines I remember from Eric Cuthbertson back in the Bar Point days - although I'm quite sure allowances should be made for the passage of time and alcohol consumption on his side and ours - are:

He's 5 foot 3 from Galilee, he does tricks upon the sea,
Has anybody seen JC?
He's a 5 foot 2 blue eyed jew, Oh he can do it for you,
Has anybody seen JC?

Well if you run into 5 foot 2, covered in thorns,
Turning the water into wine, you can bet that he's devine.

Ain't he cool, he's no fool, he just walked my swimming pool,
Has anybody seen JC?

His father, Joseph, he‘s a gas, came from Bethlehem on his ass,

Is someone still looking for this? I wrote a skit in Presbyterian summer camp for a show we did in the late 70s at Camp Redwood in Occidental Ca in 1978. It looks like there are many slight variations of the way I did it... I thought the counselors that taught it to me had written it, but maybe it had been around for a while... But it was a big hit at the summer play that year... I think we won... Anyway, this is an old thread. I didn't know if you were still looking for it.
It went:
Five foot nine. Eyes that shine.
Born & raised in Palestine.
Has anybody seen my lord. (sho-be-do-bop shoe-be-do-bop.)

Raises folks, from the dead.
Does his thing with fish & bread.
Has anybody seen my lord.

Well if you run into, a little jew, wearing a sheet.
Hair that's weird, wears a beard.
Take a look at his hands & feet. (well)

Five foot nine, he's devine,
changes water into wine.
Has anybody seen my lord.(they call him jesus)
Has anybody seen my lord. (he's my massiah)
Has any body seen my
Anybody seen my
Anybody seen my lord. (ba-ba-do-bop. Wah...)

Sung to Anybody seen my gal. of course.
