My Zelda Lyrics

(Parody of "Matilda" by Harry Belafonte)

Oy, my Zelda
My Zelda
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor
Once again now
My Zelda
My Zelda
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor

My Zelda she found her big romance
When I broke the zipper in my pants
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor

Everybody!

CHORUS

Sing along with Moish now!

CHORUS

It's almost too sad to tell to you
She took 7 books of green stamps too
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor

Everybody!
CHORUS

Once again now!

CHORUS

That tailor he really hurt my pride
He made my lapels an inch too wide
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor

Everybody!

My Zelda (comin' 'round the corner)
My Zelda (sing out the chorus)
My Zelda, she took the money and ran with the tailor

Once again now!

CHORUS
Members of Hadassah!

CHORUS

Everybody!

CHORUS

Oh why did she go and fall in love
I haven't seen her since Tisha B'av
My Zelda she took the money and ran with the tailor
-Everybody!

CHORUS

Sing a little softer..

CHORUS

Everybody!

CHORUS
