THE MIDOS SONG- Marvelous Midos Machine- Composed By Abie Rotenberg- Episode 1
Like a bird without its wings,
Or a bell that doesn’t ring
Like a plane without a pilot,
Or a heart does not beat.
Like a song without a tune,
Or a night without the Moon
A Jew without good Midos –
Is simply incomplete.
CHORUS:
Midos are the way we act, and how we think and feel.
The Torah shows us just what we should do
So if you want to do what’s right and really be a mensch,
You’ve got to have good Midos through and through.
Like butter without bread,
Or a hat without a head
Like an egg that doesn’t have a yolk,
Or candy that’s not sweet.
Like soup without a bowl,
Or a bagel with no hole
A Jew without good Midos –
Is simply incomplete.
CHORUS:
Midos are the way we act, and how we think and feel.
The Torah shows us just what we should do
So if you want to do what’s right and really be a mensch,
You’ve got to have good Midos through and through.
Like a candle with a flame,
Or a picture in its frame
Like sailing on the sea –
Beneath the sky without a cloud.
Like a bottle filled with wine,
Or a clock that’s right on time
A Jew that has good Midos,
Can stand up tall and proud.
CHORUS:
Midos are the way we act, and how we think and feel.
The Torah shows us just what we should do
So if you want to do what’s right and really be a mensch,
You’ve got to have good Midos through and through
You’ve got to have good Midos through and through…
