verses repeat, then bridge/ending:

CSing (x32010@1)next year in Jerusalem
You know - the one at W. 103rd and Broadway?
Cuz this Orthodox girl fell in love with the guy at the falafel shop
And why not?
Should she have averted her eyes and
Just stared at the laminated poster of the dome of the rock?
C (x32010@1)Remembrances of holy days in Tarrytown and Rye
