WHAT FUN

Oh, say, what fun to be a Jew!
Today is Succoth: what to do?

We march around and chant Hosannas
Whilst holding citrons (not bananas).

The citron is not good to eat:
Think “big-ass lemon with cellulite.”

We wave our palm fronds in the air -
Willow and myrtle leaves get in our hair,
[Despite them little hats we wear.]

Does all this sound so very hard?
Now: Build a shack in your back yard,

And eat your meals out there all week.
The neighbors think that you’re a freak.

Oh, say, what fun to be a Jew!
If only all the goyim knew.
