In memory of Arnold Fine:
In the year, taf-taf-lamed-tes
There’ll be a daily paper called the Jewish Press
For fifty dollars you can check it out, folks
To see if Arnold Fine has run out of jokes (whoa-oo-whoa)
This is an old song – I recently remembered that this year was Taf-shin-ayin-gimmel! Boro Park survived (of course).
(Fortunately for him, there were no predictions in the song for this year. When 5784 rolls around, watch the esrog prices! But the prediction for 5796 is simply impossible [a shteeble every 15 feet].)
