Jews Scream for Ice Cream
11 January 2004
My dad's collection of ice cream sheet music includes the following dialect for “I Scream – You Scream – We All Scream for ICE CREAM”:
I scream, you scream, ve all scream for Ice Cream, RAH RAH RAH
Ve're not caring if it smells from herring, SHA SHA SHA
It's malicious – in big dishes
Ve like it covered with – gefillte fishes
Iceberg, Lindberg, and Goldberg and Ginsberg, Ice Cream COHN!
Not particulary politically correct, I suppose, but funny, and we're allowed to make fun of our own heritage, right? I have to say, however, that despite my willingness to eat fish from a jar, I hope never to be served ice cream topped with gefillte fish. One right after the other, maybe, but not together.
