When I ran the Purim Carnival
At Temple Beth Sherman Oaks
The Bouncy Castle Deflated
And Hamantashen sales went bust
When I ran the Purim Carnival
At Temple Beth Sherman Oaks
The Bucket Ride spun whiplash fast
At Temple Beth Sherman Oaks
The Rabbi got dunked in a tank
And his Purim costume came off
When I ran the Purim Carnival
When I ran the Purim Carnival
At Temple Beth Sherman Oaks
I bribed my sons to volunteer
And a beanbag left me concussed
When I ran the Purim Carnival
When I ran the Purim Carnival
At Temple Beth Sherman Oaks
I'll spare you the whole megillah
And sum it up like this: I quit



Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Grandma crowned Queen of her Temple's Purim Carnival in the mid-60s at a Gala event at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel (later briefly home to Julia Roberts in 'Pretty Woman')?
ReplyDeleteyes... Queen Esther... but not for a carnival.
ReplyDeleteReads like the English translation to one of the Passover songs like Dayenu. Maybe part of a modern Hagada...
ReplyDeletePart of modern Hagada: a personal dream of mine. Let's make it happen!
