Listen All Of Y'all This Is SHABBATage!

Shabbat Shalom, everybody!Here's a little something to make you laugh before sundown.

We see a lot of music video parodies trying to put together this blog. When we say a lot, we mean oodles. An abundance. A Boatload. A billion. Seriously, there are a so many out there. We try to save you from the terrible ones, and only bring you the best (or the ones that are so awkward that they are awesome).

It is a delight to find the good ones, and we're over the moon when we find something totally terrific. Today is one of those days.

The crazy kids of Lazy Shabbos Productions started by doing a Lazy Sunday spoof, (we know, a parody song of a comedy song- barf) but their production values and senses of humor have evolved in the past three years, and they are kicking some serious comedy butt with their latest video. Plus, they look like they are having a whole lot of fun.

Please watch and laugh at their full-force homage to the fabulous Beastie Boys. We do. A lot!

I guess this Shabbat isn't going to have a whole lot of Shalom, because, listen all of y'all this Is SHABBATage!

Lyrics:
I can't stand it, all week I planned it
Nothin' on my plate, to satiate
I just can't daven when I'm hungry
If there ain't no food then there ain't no prayer
So don't you sit there and laugh at me
I'm gonna rage like a Maccabee
Get ready for a Hebrew barrage
I'm telling y'all its SHABBATAGE

So, So, So, get out my way when I'm wielding the Torah
On your grave I'll be dancing the hora

Oy vey, you know life's a bitch
I'll throw you out, throw back the Manischewitz

I'll pump your guts chock full of cement, when
I knock you out with a bowl full of cholent
You're gonna need a gastric lavage
Listen up it's Shabbatage

OYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

(It's 5 minutes 'til candle lighting)

Listen All Of Y'all This Is Shabbatage
These three Jews are my entourage
Gonna chew you up like a macrophage
Listen All Of Y'all This Is Shabbatage

I can't eat it, that kind of meat
It doesn't chew its cud, it wallows in the mud
Forget the ham, well spam you with junk mail
Choke on a manny and gefilte fish cocktail

Put your Beemer in the garage
Meet my homeboys Chuck and Siraz
No happy ending for your massage
Gotta blame the Shabbatage!

Shabbat Shalom! A Talking Wine Bottle!

Holy Moly. You really need to watch this video right now.

Chabad.org doesn't let us embed, so let us break it down for you.

Shira really likes wine.

She wants to drink it every day. She has a lot of questions about it. So the talking wine bottle ("Wow! A talking wine bottle!") comes to tell her about - the dangers of underage drinking?

Nope.

Wine bottle is there to tell Shira how wine makes you "happy" and "feel special."



So, Shira likes wine even more now! Mr. Wine Bottle really hits it home when he helps Shira compare Kosher grapes to "something very precious" that she has and "she won't let anyone touch. "

Oh, dear. I think maybe Mr. Wine Bottle has had a little too much of himself this Shabbat.

Seriously. You really need to watch this video.



Note: We have a theory. I'm pretty sure The Talking Wine Bottle was directed by the same genius behind the infamous songsmith commercial.
