SO YOU WANNA BE A JEW
(Lyrics: David Lefkowitz. Music: Richard M. Sherman and Robert M. Sherman’s “I Wan’na be Like You (The Monkey Song)”.)
Well, I’m the head of a synagogue in old Great Neck, New York Although I am not orthodox at least I don’t eat pork (except spare ribs)
I am generally miserable That’s just how I be So it’s quite a shock And my world is rocked When I hear you wanna be like me.
Oh, You-hoo-hoo You wanna be a Jew-hoo-hoo? You wanna grow a beard Dress up weird Nu-hu-hu?
It’s all right If you wanna be an Israelite Just learn the laws Ditch Santa Claus And you just might
Now, you don’t have to get circumcised Well, not if you’re a chick But boy oh boy If you’re a goy You better go snip that dick
Now get two sets of dishes And a prayer book, of course Then find a wife And spend your life Praying for death or divorce
Oh, boo-hoo-hoo Wanna be Hebrew-hoo-hoo You wanna wake up sore Kiss the door Lose two pounds on Yom Kippur
Oh, boy-oy-oy Who wants to be a goy-oy-oy? Just drop the cross No big loss say “oy-oy-oy!”
It’s true that I’m outspoken I’m sorry if I shout But when Jews are quiet You can’t deny it – We tend to get rubbed out
So I say what I say, that’s just my way When I have you in my grip And it’s just as well `Cause I’m cute as hell When I do my gaza strip
Ohh… ai ai ai So you wanna be like this Rabbi And like me, you’ll Run a shul For Adonai
Ki-yi-yids You wanna be Yi-yi-yids I’ve got lots more facts In the second act So come on baaack! Dammit!
