The Little Hebrew Girl - Stephin Merritt[00:00:01]
The little hebrew girl[00:00:06]
Heard her mother's dying wish:[00:00:09]
"don't become christian[00:00:13]
Just be jewish[00:00:16]
Honor our tradition[00:00:20]
Of denying god above[00:00:23]
Heed the pigeon of religion[00:00:26]
And ignore the dove of love "[00:00:29]
The little hebrew girl[00:00:39]
Was a maid for calvinists[00:00:42]
She read in the gospel:[00:00:46]
Jesus exists [00:00:48]
Yet she still persisted[00:00:53]
In her tribal sacrilege[00:00:55]
She would nix the crucifixion[00:00:58]
Always dredging up her pledge[00:01:01]
"mama [00:01:07]
I love you "[00:01:09]
The little hebrew girl[00:01:31]
Having lived her fleeting time[00:01:34]
Rested near the churchyard[00:01:38]
Where the bells chime[00:01:41]
Promising we'll climb that[00:01:44]
Final day to peter's gate[00:01:47]
Maybe she can hear them ringing[00:01:50]
Maybe death is not too late[00:01:53]
"mama [00:01:59]
I love you "[00:02:02]
