What’s A Jew Without A Tribe?

Jeremy Cohen

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

You have a Yiddishe Kop, you are one of us,

You have to work harder, be smarter, and have incredible talents, you are one of us,

When you decide to get into an Ivy League school-- you will, you are one of us,

I know you could be good at business, you are one of us,

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

What’s the difference between a Kike and a cookie? Cookies don’t burn in the oven.

How do you get a Shylock’s number? Roll up their sleeve.

When Heebs play football, what’s the goal? To get the quarterback.

What happens if a Yid walks into a wall with a boner? He breaks his nose.

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

You must be great at math since you are one of them,

You must be great with money since you are one of them,

You must be really smart since you are one of them,

You must be quite the academic since you are one of them,

You must think you're better than us because you're one of the "Chosen People,"

You, you, you...

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

Why is it you’re all rich, is it because you’re cheap and you Jew ‘em down?

Why is it you’re all nasty?

Why is it you’re all dirty?

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

“Don’t trust anyone but your family and your people.”

How could this be true, if they never saw past the surface and maybe never will... But this has to be true since goyim don’t see me at all...

    Try to think of us - the ones that don't see black/white/purple/Jewish/Muslim/short/tall/yellow/red - you have a nice face - that's all I can see.

  • Jeremy Cohen

    Thanks, that's very sweet. I believe everyone sees it, you just have to treat everyone the same, with love and kindness.

    • Jeremy Cohen

      That\'s an interesting way to approach things. I guess that when the next person treats me like shit it'll be my fault? LOL

      • Jeremy Cohen

        Of course not, doesn't make it any less wrong. Also, this is pretty unrelated to the concept conveyed by the poem...

        • ZIGGY

          hi good to read your words talking about your theme for me I don't care about colour or creed its all about personality and respect for another human been I don't see borders or religion we all human and I hope some day we can become a one united race ,,,,zigs

          • Jeremy Cohen

            OUTBACK I deleted your comments because your first one was antisemitic and the rest were nonsense.

            Thanks zigs, that's sweet of you to say. 🙂

            • Jeremy Cohen

              Ummm... You're an idiot OUTBACK.

              • Jeremy Cohen

                LOL you missed the point of this poem, but you gave me something to add OUTBACK...

                • Jeremy Cohen

                  Diamond, the thing is you didn't criticize the poem, you just completely missed the point of it altogether... The poem was about a complex emotion... To me what you said was just stating that you have a victim's mentality. Victim's always feel as though everything is there fault. That is just not true.

                  • Jeremy Cohen

                    Diamond, his first comment (of which I deleted) was extraordinarily antisemitic, at least from trying to make out what he said considering there were asterisks and parenthesis everywhere. Luckily I found the ignore button. I'm not going to give hateful people the time of day. You seem like a decent human being which is why I was happy to respond to you.

                    I used to get upset by those jokes, and even what others seem to still consider innocent expressions like “ Don’t let her Jew ya down on the price “.
                    I worked for Starbucks for a few years, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that saying.
                    And many times from nice boys, they grew up hearing it, hence reapeted it.
                    Same with “ that’s so gay”
                    I recently corrected my 7 year old son for saying this.
                    He didn’t even know the meaning.

                    • Jeremy Cohen

                      Yeah that's an awful saying. Awww, well you did a good thing, because all "that's so gay" does is keep people in the closet.
