Sung to the tune of “Everyone’s a Little Bit Racist” from “Avenue Q.”
New lyrics by Adam Sank
Introduction:
[Person 1] You’re a little bit Jewish
[Person 2] Well, you’re a little bit too.
[Person 1] I guess we’re both a little bit Jewish
[Person 2] Admitting it’s an easy thing to do
[Person 1] Sing, “Barechu!”
[Person 2] Between me and you, I think…
Verse 1: [Everybody]
Everyone’s a little bit Jewish. Oy vey
Doesn’t mean we all read Hebrew. Or pray
Grandpa may have been a goy
Sung Christmas carols as a boy
But now he blows the shofar every fall
So he’s a little Jewish… after all.
Verse 2:
Everyone’s a little bit Jewish
Shalom!
Doesn’t mean we all keep kosher
At home
You might work on Saturdays
Or be going through a Buddhist phase
But you light the candles
Friday night
That to you is Jewish… done right
Verse 3: [A bit slower]
Everyone’s a little bit Jewish
L’chaim!
Just because you like cheeseburgers
It’s no crime
Judaism is so vast
It isn’t just about the past
But more about what’s meaningful
For you
That’s why you are really… a Jew.
[Spoken] Everyone’s a little bit Jewish!
Why make an account and save your favorite JewBelong stuff? Because someday Jack is going to get off his ass and pop the question and you’re going to get to plan that wedding you've been thinking about since third grade.
or
It makes us happy to know that you’re back. Have a great day!
Because why use any of your precious brain cells to remember where you kept those great readings that you’ll use someday at Jeffrey’s B Mitzvah? Make an account, keep the readings there. Easy peasy. The only thing you’ll need to remember is your password, and from personal experience that’s hard enough.
Hey, can you watch the phones on Friday? We have a thing.
