Waking Up is hard to Do....

with apologies to the Rambam and Neal Sedaka

ז [ד] אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁתְּקִיעַת שׁוֹפָר בְּרֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה גְּזֵרַת הַכָּתוּב, רְמָז יֵשׁ בּוֹ: כְּלוֹמַר עוּרוּ עוּרוּ יְשֵׁנִים מִשִּׁינַתְכֶם, וְהָקִיצוּ
נִרְדָּמִים מִתַּרְדֵּמַתְכֶם; וְחַפְּשׂוּ בְּמַעֲשֵׂיכֶם וְחִזְרוּ בִּתְשׁוּבָה, וְזִכְרוּ בּוֹרַאֲכֶם. אֵלּוּ הַשּׁוֹכְחִים אֶת הָאֱמֶת בְּהַבְלֵי הַזְּמָן, וְשׁוֹגִים כָּל שְׁנָתָם בְּהֶבֶל וְרִיק אֲשֶׁר לֹא יוֹעִיל וְלֹא יַצִּיל--הַבִּיטוּ לְנַפְשׁוֹתֵיכֶם, וְהֵטִיבוּ דַּרְכֵיכֶם וּמַעַלְלֵיכֶם; וְיַעֲזֹב כָּל אֶחָד מִכֶּם דַּרְכּוֹ הָרָעָה, וּמַחְשַׁבְתּוֹ אֲשֶׁר לֹא טוֹבָה

To the tune of Breaking up is Hard to Do

Don't take Your love away from me
Don't You leave me cause of my insanity
If you go then I'll be even a worse excuse for a Jew
'Cause waking up is hard to do

That slippery slope sure is steep
One misstep drags another till I fell asleep
I’m in hibernation; don’t know when I’ll come to,
'Cause waking up is hard to do

Remember at Sinai you held me tight
And you tagged me “Chosen-swell-allright”
Forget the present just remember the debut
'Cause Waking Up Is Hard To Do

They say that waking up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say that נעילה is the end
Instead of a halfway messy cleanup,
I wish that I was waking up again

I beg of You,
don't write or seal that I will die
Can't You give my T’shuva another try?
Gutt in Himmel I’m deep in stew
Gevalt-waking up is hard to do

Qedusha-havdala-have you had your today??? Hmm??
