In Otisville they sing a famous Yiddish song:
A sukkaleh a gresser
Mit insurance zeyr besser
Hob ich mir mit chandeliers gemacht
Gedekt dem dach
Mit expensiver schach
Ich hob gebrent mayn sukkele by nacht
I don’t know the rest of the words; it is about someone who put up a very fancy sukkah by insuring it for fourteen days and burning it the night of Isru Chag so that he was able to claim.
(The actual song is A Sukkale A Sheyne; I don’t have the correct words available but they aren’t hard to find).
