Now for the song (from MAD magazine many moons ago):

	To the tune of "Hello, Dolly"

	Hello deli,
	This is Joe, deli,
	Would you please send up a nice corned beef on rye.
	A box of Ritz, deli,
	And some Schlitz, deli,
	And some liver and a sliver of your apple pie.
	Some chicken legs, deli,
	Hard boiled eggs, deli,
	Some tomatoes and potatoes you french fry.
	Don't delay, deli,
	You know that I just can't wait, deli.
	Deli without breakfast I will die.
