Subject: RE: The Sheitel Song: Burn Your Wig
Bill, now that you mention Tom Paxton and his song "One Million Lawyers", I think that he had a song on the same album entitled " The Perfect Bomb". One line from that song said something like " It can turn a Yasir Arafat into a Danny Kaye". Perhaps this post would have been more appropriate to the "Palestine My Palestine" thread. But since you mentioned Tom Paxton it jogged my memory. I think that if Tom Paxton were Jewish and familiar with Jewish tradition, he would have written this "Burn Your Wig" song. It is precisely his type of satirical humor. SOL ZELLER
