Taming of the Jew

takeoff on Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew

Taming of the Jew

Zedekiah was a wild young boy

who swore he would never settle down

always in trouble with his elders

he had been banned from the local town

the Rabbi chastised him constantly

his father threatened him with harm

out of pure ornery spite

he had a tattoo of Goliath put on his arm

picking fights and raising hell

no one knew what to do

how to take the fight out of him

but not the spirit within his soul too

then on his 16^th birthday

a redheaded princess appeared

he caught her eye and she smiled his way

his heart raced too hard he feared

she was so beautiful he thought

she must be an angel from above

she said her name was Rebecca

and he instantly fell in love

she had heard about him she said

and all of his devious ways

if he had any serious interest in her

there would have to be changes made

as the months and the years swept by

everyday he loved her more

she captured his heart beyond belief

then came the knock on her door

he came to ask for her hand he said

he begged her to be his bride

he could no longer stand alone

his love was bursting inside

she smiled and kissed him oh so softly

and yes was her answer she swore

this wild young man had finally been tamed

he promised his heart forever more

Lol. I found this to be entertaining though I don't know a lot about the Jewish mannerisms or traditions. but this could fit most any young dude I think.
