It is a much more appropriate camp song than, say, The Cannibal King, or Sippin' Cider (not too bad)that we sang in Bais Yaakov Camp as kids. No one was too upset about those songs in those days, when people weren't very uptight and worried about their frumkeit.Your loving Auntienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-11759674729626317432011-09-11T08:41:16.093-04:002011-09-11T08:41:16.093-04:00You know what happens when kids sing songs like th...You know what happens when kids sing songs like this...<br /><br />...they end up reading comic books!

My <b>rebbeim</b> sang Allan Sherman songs. My friend the Lakewood kollel avreich sings Allan Sherman songs (often with me with his very bemused wife and children looking on - his knowledge of all the lyrics to "Seltzer Boy" apparently was not something she had previously experienced in their 8 years of marriage). To allow children to go to camp and <b>not</b> know "Hello Madduh Hello Fadduh" is a crime against humanity.efrexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-59541701754043793642011-09-06T10:19:53.935-04:002011-09-06T10:19:53.935-04:00It's a great song, and my kids' day camp e...It's a great song, and my kids' day camp even used the original version as a soundtrack for a slideshow one year.tesyaanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-3980729388598569682011-09-05T23:17:37.297-04:002011-09-05T23:17:37.297-04:00Aunt Bertha's embrace, LOLAunt Bertha's embrace, LOLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-58021107286529078842011-09-05T22:00:03.093-04:002011-09-05T22:00:03.093-04:00'Country Yossi' sings a parody of the song...'Country Yossi' sings a parody of the song involved in one of his albums. So one can say that there is a 'Jewish version' of it.
