    Mashie has a little mind

    Little mind, little mind

    When it comes to Mashie’s mind

    There’s little she need know

    Teach her how to cook and clean

    Cook and clean, cook and clean

    Teach her how to cook and clean

    And watch her children grow


    Baa, baa, black hat

    Have you any gelt

    Yessir, yessir

    I’ve a money belt

    Some for my family

    And some for the poor

    But none for the tax man who knocks at my door


    Hey-diddle-diddle

    There stands a Yid’l

    Sanctifying the moon

    Tomorrow he’ll shiver

    Kneel down by the river

    And dip in two plates and a spoon


    Little Moshe Yoel

    Sat in a kollel

    Learning his Pe’ah and Demai

    His wife works all day

    While he shteigs away

    And thinks, What a smart boy am I


    Halivni-Weissni sat on a wall

    Couldn’t decide on which side to fall

    All the frum soldiers in Tziv’os Hashem

    Couldn’t convince him to be one of them


    Rabbi Plott would eat what’s glatt

    His wife ate Triangle-K

    Their kids did not know what to eat

    And so they ran away


    Three tiny bugs

    Three tiny bugs

    See how they run

    See how they run

    They live in lettuce and broccoli

    In cauliflower they hide from me

    My microscope makes them clear to see

    The three tiny bugs

    Three tiny bugs


    Sing a song of past tense

    Of Jewish days gone by

    When we lived in Europe

    Nobody was frei

    When the ghettoes opened

    Off maskilim ran

    But the shtetl always stayed

    A Torah wonderland

    Everyone knew Torah

    Loved it more than money

    No one had to work in that

    Land of Milk and Honey

    And though we’re now in Golus

    In an Age that’s Dark

    We’ll try to rebuild Poland

    Here in Borough Park


    Little Miss Alpert

    Sat in an airport

    That was her first shidduch date

    She thought the guy wore a very nice tie

    The chasenoh is Sunday at eight

    Hickory dickory dock

    My sukkah came with a fine shlok

    The rain goes by

    But I stay dry

    Hickory dickory dock


    Hey diddle diddle

    The man in the middle

    The shadchan comes into the room

    The young siblings laugh

    At their big sister’s gaffe

    When she says “IY’H by me soon”

    Hey yiddle yiddle

    your house is too little

    can you add a second wine cellar?

    to fit with our crowd

    be rich and be loud

    and have more cash than a Rockefeller

    Jack’s still nimble

    Though now he’s bigger

    Now he runs

    From his sharp-tongued shvigger


    Little Jack Finkel

    Sat in a vinkle

    eating his Hamantash

    a bagel & lox

    would be his first choice

    but he has no kvertel to wash


    Mirel Scheiner

    Quite a whiner

    how does your garden grow?

    “my bluebell would make me kvell

    it’s just that it grows so slow”


    Mary had a little lamb

    Her father was a farmer

    It followed her to school one day

    For lunch they had schawarmer …(shhh – don’t tell PETA about this one)


    Old King Cole was a merry old soul

    But one day he was feeling feeble

    He asked his advisers to take a poll

    If he should build a nearby shteeble

    The shul came equipped with a top notch rov

    to help the king daven to the one above

    Also, for the singles it had a shadchan

    & for when he was sad it had a member badchan

    When davening finished (at 12 o’clock)

    The oilam had a chulent – azah geshmak

    The tzibur came from miles around

    for the overnight kugel (thoroughly browned)

    you can come on yomtov and buy an aliyah

    our door’s always open, we’ll be happy to see ya

    the eensy weensy spider crawled up the water spout

    Mrs. Balebusta saw it and it caused her to pout,

    up came the broom to wipe it all away

    and the eensy weensy spider did not crawl up again!

    Yaakov and Yehudis went up the hill to fetch a pail of water

    Yak fell down

    and broke his bone

    so Yehudis said refuah sheleima!

    Little Miss Molly

    lost her dolly

    Old Baba Hubbard

    went to her cupboard

    to get her ainekel a treat

    When she got there

    the supply wasn’t there

    that Yankel ate it all, the cheat!

    There was a dear mama

    who lived in back of a shul

    she had so many children,

    and so much to do

    so she fed them some supper,

    kissed all their heads,

    said the shema

    and sent them to bed!

    my yingle just turned six; hence

    he’s now learning bereishis

    a chumash party made sense,

    nothing ostentatious

    the zaidys and the bubbys

    sat in the back kvelling

    the viber and their hubbys

    enjoyed their kids’ tzushtelling

    the party worked out just right

    it was a great success

    but then I was up all night

    from noshing to excess

    A rebbe heard his name invoked

    letter by letter, sound by sound.

    He could have wondered what the chosid smoked,

    yet he knew better, being under the ground.

    The chosid yelled and danced and sang

    when he heard a voice that made him shudder.

    Loud and clear in his ears it rang –

    “Yes, that’s my name, but I did not stutter”.

    Some overfed cats

    in Dr. Seuss hats

    were looking for fun in the street.

    Trash was overturned,

    few tires were burned,

    preparing the Shabbos to greet.

    With stones piled high

    no car to deny

    the pleasure of smashing its glass.

    While calling crass names

    of those who stoked flames

    and burned bodies murdered with gas.

    And after the show,

    with faces aglow,

    they strut home to relish their meal.

    Then they threaten repeat,

    and stomp their feet

    not caring what others may feel.

    No matter the cause,

    whatever the flaws,

    destruction and wild rampage!

    Being idle all day

    with no mice to play,

    having nothing the hands to engage.

    They aren’t to be blamed

    as felines could be tamed

    and trained to be mannered and good.

    The fault lies overseas

    with those whom they please.

    Those fat cats that supply their food.

    There was a shayneh maydel,

    Who was really much too aydel –

    and could not see herself dating just yet.

    And whenever she was redt,

    she turned very very red –

    From her cheeks ‘way up to her forehead.

    Shvigger, Shvigger, in the way,

    How I wonder why you drei!

    Up above the world so high,

    Like a dark cloud in the sky.

    Shvigger, Shvigger, in the way,

    How I wonder why you drei!

    When the blazing sun is gone,

    When there’s nothing he shines upon,

    Then you show your fearful sight.

    Screaming, Yelling, through the night.

    Shvigger, Shvigger, in the way,

    How I wonder why you drei!

    Lurking In the shadows deep,

    Into my business you always creep.

    How you never close your mouth,

    even when the birds fly south.

    Shvigger, Shvigger, if I may,

    Why I wonder do you drei!

    Shvigger, Shvigger, what a day!

    How I wonder when you’ll pay!
