December 25, Sunday, is the first night of Hanukkah! 'Twas the Night before Hanukkah...

Soch ah disgrace! 



The Kinderlach, sleeping,

uneasily felt

The chocolate rush

from the Hanukkah gelt  

 And me in the easyboy,
so stuffed with latkes,
I stretched the elastic

which held up my gatchkes

When up on the roof
(and it has a steep pitch)
A fat alte kakker
was making a kvitsch. 

       

  

He had a white beard
and payyes to boot,
And to keep out the cold,

he had such a nice suit!

A second from Peerless,
I could tell at a glance,

But the cut was okay,
and so were the pants. 

 

He was triple XL,
a real groisser goof,
So I yelled out,
"Meshuggener! Get off from Mein roof!" 

 

 He jumped down and said
as he shook hands with me,
"Max Klaus is the name.
You have maybe some tea?" 

 So I gave him a gleisel,
while he shook his white mop,
Mutt'ring, "Always the same thing,
They're dreying my kopp!"

From Vancouver to Glacer Bay,
Outremont to Reginek,
Every shmo in the world
hakks meir a cheinik!

 

They're screaming for presents,
and challah with schmaltz,
And from Brooklyn alone,
the back pain, gevaltz!" 

So we sat and yentehed,
and we spun the old dreydels,
(He took all of my money,
and one of my kanidels)

  

He said, "Business is not bad,
a living I make,
But I'm getting too old
for this Hanukkah fake;  

   
 

And the cell phones, you see
how my pacemaker dings?
For two cents I'd quit,
and move to Palm Springs?" 

And he gave a geshrei
as he fled mit a lacht,
"Gut Yontiff to All, 

Vey is Mir, Such a Nacht!"
