Oy Vey (The Shidduch Crisis) Parody of Tik Tok by Ke$ha

A very autotuned parody of Ke$ha's Tik Tok about the Shidduch Crisis. Maybe the solution lies in playing the game (or maybe not). This parody is not meant to offend any religion, group, or person. I hope it makes you smile. Lyrics are below. (Feel free to take the music and make a better video.)

Glossary:
Shadchan: Marriage networker - sets people up on dates
Town = New York
Sarah Schnierer = Founder of Bais Yaakov movement, worked to educate girls
Tznius - modesty (tznius button is in between the first and second buttons to be extra strict)
Baruch Hashem-ing - Saying thank G-d all the time indicates you are super religious
Bais Yaakov - school, religious movement of way to educate girls to be good Jews
Oy Vey - Yiddish phrase of woe
Yichus - family heritage - important to come from a good family
Shana Bet - second year of study in Israel after high school
bashert - person meant to be with forever


Wake up in the morning hearing from my Shadchan
(Ive a match for you!)
Got my profile, Im now in town, Im ready to begin
(Dont be picky)
Before I leave, check my hem with a ruler and mirror
Cause when I come to meet her, Ill be Sarah Schenirer

Im talking tznius button up my neck, neck
Opinions all in check, check
Hair pulled tight in the back, back
Bruch-Hasheming, dressing so Bais Yaakov
Standing by the kitchen stove
Trying to put on a show

Just stop, being me
Until I get to date 3
Tonight, Imma lie
Til Im seen in black and white
Oy vey its the way
Cuz people wont change, no x2 oh

Aint got the yichus that counts, but I do lots of chesed
Aint got shana bet education, but got degrees instead
And now, the guys are showing up cause they fit my profile
But I send them on their way unless they have wicked smiles

Im talking about everybody getting wed, wed
Rabbis up in my head, head
Gonna say that Im being led, led

Now, now, I play until they find me out, out
Or my bashert comes around, round
Bashert comes around
Bashert comes around

Just stop, being me
Until I get to date 3
Tonight, Imma lie
Til Im seen in black and white
Oy vey its the way
Cuz people wont change, no x2 oh

Shadchan, you bring it up
You break me down
My world, it drowns
Yeah, you poke me

With my mask down
You got me now
You got that guy
Yeah, you got me

Shadchan, you bring it up
You break me down
My world, it drowns
Yeah, you poke me

With my mask down
Put your mask down
Put your mask down

Now, the date don't start 'til I walk in

Just stop, being them
When I get to meet him
Tonight, Imma show
All the beauty in my soul
Oy vey its the way
Cuz people wont change, no x2
