The Lyrics

You know Katzenberg, Kramer, King David and Koppel
Solomon, Sondheim, O'Riellyfs Falafel
But do you recall the most famous Hebrew of all?

Moses the manly Hebrew
Struck a most impressive pose
He took the Jews from Egypt
Right from under Pharaoh's nose

All of the other Hebrews
Used to have to slave all day
But Moses, he had status
And he made the bad guys pay

Mo sojourned for forty years
Yahweh came to say
Moses with your manly might
Lead my people, Pharoah smite

Then Moses took on Zaius
Left the apes in disarray
And several decades later
Came to head the NRA

Loved the final pun, though it took me a couple of second to get it. :-)

Fabulous ending! 15 commandments.

I also remember Chuck Heston being on Dame Edna Everage's show and being mocked something awful. Maybe the Dame was anti-guns?

JB: Too bad that in the Mel Brooks version, Moses drops a tablet and we're left with only 10. Of course, I give mac the full 15.

Politics aside, Heston was a great actor. He even got to kiss Sophia Loren when he played El Cid. And let's not forget his "Saturday Night Live" sketch "The President Has Mustard On His Chin!" This is a fine tribute. Whoa unto thee, O Ones Guy, you damn dirty ape!

Thanks Michael! Damn. Sophia Loren still looks good. And she's what, 80? The magic of Hollywood.

Heh-Heh. Fun 5-5-5 for Yahweh, of course!
