[HANASHIR:1410] re: sukkot parodies



Why Must I Wave My Etrog and Lulav

Oooo wah-ooo  (etc., 2x)
In Autumn every year (wah - ooo) when leaves begin to fall
We dwell in tabernacles (wah - ooo)  with temporary walls
   Each year I ask the stars up above
   Why must we wave the Etrog and the Lulav?

When I was very young (wah - ooo) I understood it not
Why we wave them to and fro (wah - ooo) sometimes even on Shabbat?
    Each year I ask .....

First east, then south
Then west and north
Up and down and all around
We shake it back and forth

We take the palm and myrtle (wah - ooo)  a willow branch or two
And bind them all together (wah - ooo) and take an etrog too
Each year I ask .....

This year I'll learn
I'll make a plan
To walk into my Sukkah
With a lulav in my hand

And I'll look forward every year, when all the leaves turn brown
>From every Sukkah on my block, We'll hear that rustling lulav sound
Each year I ask .....
