I
Never Want to Hear a Child Made to Sing Cohen’s “Hallelujah” Ever Again
Our first contestant will sing
“Hallelujah”
After taking ten minutes for
exposition
About what it meant to her
granny
And she knows Granny’s in Heaven
listening
Audience, you are obligated to
cry
Our next
contestant will sing “Hallelujah”
After
taking ten minutes for exposition
About
what it meant to his ol’ pop
And
he knows Pop’s in Heaven listening
Audience,
you are obligated to cry
Our
third contestant will sing “Hallelujah”
After
taking ten minutes for exposition
About
what it meant to her cat Fluffy
And
she knows Fluffy’s in Heaven listening
Audience,
you are obligated to cry
Our fourth contestant will sing
“Hallelujah”
After taking ten minutes for
exposition
About what it meant to his big
brother
And he knows his brother is in
Heaven listening
Audience, you are obligated to
cry
And the winner is…“Hallelujah!”
And in each listener there is a
secret cry:
“Cohen, why are you doing this
to us!”
