To all writers and readers of Shtetlica
from all of us in the Jewish Submarine:
A MERRY CHRISTMANUKKA!!!
Chaim Piast
We have found a previously unpublished version of
a Beatles song. Below are
original lyrics of a song known as "Yelow Submarine".
Lennon & McCartney
were forced to make some minor changes under pressure
from certain lobby
groups who demanded full political and ethnic neutrality
in the songs of
this famous klezmer group.
JEWISH YELLOW SUBMARINE
In the shtetl where I was born
Lived a Yid who sold the sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we drove around the lakes
Till we found a crew of babes
And we lived beneath the waves
in our jewish submarine
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, jewish submarine
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, Jewish submarine
And our shiksas are all aboard
Many more of them stayed on the beach
And Estera begins to preach
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, jewish submarine
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, Jewish submarine
(Full speed ahead Mr. Azim, full speed ahead
Full speed ahead it is, Chaim.
Cut the bullshit, drop the subject
Aye, Snob, aye
Julek, Julek)
As we live a life of ease
Every one of us has all we need
Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, jewish submarine
We all live in a jewish submarine
Jewish submarine, Jewish submarine
Shalom Aloha from Honolule
