You must be KIDding!

Was the guest out of order at the Seder?

I had a funny Seder experience - when we were getting ready to sing CHad
Gad Yo (in English), a non-Jewish guest was making comments about "that
terrible song", much to my puzzlement.
I thought "what, she's an animal rights activist? (...beat the dog...)
what's the problem?"
But there wasn't time for discussion, and we launched into verse after
verse, each sung on only one breath...
A few minutes went by, and then she said thoughtfully, "Oh, I see, it's
about a GOAT kid, not a kid kid!"
