Despite all that we’ve been through
I’m still here to tell the tale
About the trials and triumphs of Israel.
You may not believe it, but it’s true
In this big world we’re just a few
16 million, that’s all, I swear,
But they think we’re swarming everywhere.
It’s amazing to think what we’ve achieved
And given the world, you just won’t believe.
You know, the horns, the nose with hook,
The funny little hats and all those noisy kids
Some Gentiles even call us Yids,
So please look at me (if you dare)
