Rick Moranis - Belated Haftorah Lyrics
Well, here I am. I made it. Still can’t believe I did this. See I didn’t get Bar Mitzvah’d the first time around, when I was thirteen. It was my parents. They were commies and they wouldn’t set foot in a shul. And they thought the post-war diaspora middle class were just appeasing their parents but had cynical bourgeois aspirations. But thank God for my wife, Shelley, whose father had a thriving auto parts business. And he took me in first as a bookkeeper. And soon enough I was running it. And she talked me into doing this so I wound up taking lessons at 46. And I got this new suit. Also a 46. Portly.And it was told the King of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the countryOK it’s over. Hope I didn’t make too much of a putz out of myself. It wouldn’t be the first time. And don’t think that the meaning escaped me. I read the thing a thousand times. And you know, this actually was sort of fun. I mean, being up here and hanging with these guys. And I really don’t mind being here on a Saturday. Because I’m really not that good a golfer.
