[Cz-L] Another gem from Hardy Breier...

Czernowitzers...

What's this? Does it have anything to do with Genealogy? It was a song
by George and Ira Gershwin, from 1937. "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off."
You remember maybe ...

You like potato and I like potahto,
You like tomato and I like tomahto;
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!

Well from our indomitable Mr. Breier comes:

YEHUPETZ

YOU SAY YEHUPETZ, I SAY YEHIPETZ,
YOU SAY BELUPETZ,I SAY BELIPETZ
YEHUPETZ,YEHIPETZ
BELUPETZ, BELIPETZ
LET'S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF….

YOU CALL IT LOTKES, I CALL THEM LATKES
YOU'RE WEARING GOTKES, I'M WEARING GATKES
LOTKES LATKES
GOTKES GATKES
LET'S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF….

YOU CALL IT ZWONZIG, I CALL IT ZWANZIG
YOU CALL IT WONZIG, I CALL IT WANZIG
ZWONZIG, ZWANZIG
WONZIG, WANZIG
LET'S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF….

YOU SAY SADAGORA,I SAY SADAGERE
YOU SAY KUCZUMARA, I SAY KUCZUMERE
SADAGORA, SADAGERE
KUCZUMARA, KUTCHUMERE
LET'S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF….

YOU CALL IT ZHICZKE, I CALL IT ZHUCZKA
YOU SAY KOLOKICHKA, I SAY KOLOKUTCHKA
ZHICZKA ZHUCZKA, KICHKA KUCHKA
LET'S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF….
