THE FIRST CUP OF WINE

MIKE D

Ahem, um, no big deal, but we didn’t get a chance,

to, ahem, do one of our songs, when we came in?

AD-ROCK

We think it’s perfect, Rick. For the first cup of wine.

“Fight For Your Right”

EVERYONE

Pour it!

MIKE-D

You wake up late for Hebrew school 

Hashem, you don't want to go

You ask yo’ Mom, please? But she still says, no

Missed Bar Mitzvah class, did no Haftarah work

And your Rabbi says your Sermon

Needs a whole lotta work

EVERYONE

But you still gotta right (dum dum) 

To that first cup, of wine!

MIKE D

Hm. That’s pretty weird actually?

We’re, like, still promoting teen drinking?

How old is a Bar Mitzvah again?

AD-ROCK

I think it’s thirteen, man. Yeah, that’s too young.

EVERYONE

Sometimes you gotta role model! (dum dum)

The other ways of, partying!

MIKE D

Wait, are we saying, the other, kind of, bitter herb?

AD-ROCK

I don’t think so, I mean, I wasn’t thinking it, but, now, you’re saying it, so, it’s like, now, everyone probably is, or was, and I missed it, but-

EVERYONE

To be clear everyone! (dum dum) An example would be, singing, maybe even (dum dum) dancing!

AD-ROCK

OK, yeah, I feel better about that, you? 

MIKE D

The Beasties finally becoming men. Um, people.

RICK RUBIN

And let’s not forget to say the prayer!

EVERYONE

Baruch atah Ad-nai Eloheinu Melech ha'olam bo're p'ri hagafen.

Praised are You, Our G-d, who blesses us and creates the fruit of the vine.
