[verse 1]
i am the very model of a biblical philologist
i’m quite the semitician and a passing hittitologist
my articles are free from all grammatical iniquity
i rank semitic cognates in their order of propinquity
i am very well acquainted, too, with matters exegetical
i side with all the orthodox, and censure the heretical
in print, i wrinkle brows of any liberal who wrinkles mine
wrinkles mine, wrinkles mine… got it!
and counter all the theses of that vigilante finkelstein!
and counter all the theses of that vigilante finkelstein!
and counter all the theses of that vigilante finkelstein!
and counter all the theses of that vigilante finkel*finkelstein!
then i can give a lecture on the logic of leviticus
and tell you every symbol in the apparatus criticus

i’ve memorized, in order, all the known hapax legomena!
then i can tell the age of every patriarch in genesis
and tell the daghesh fortés from the shureqs and the lenéses
i dream in aramaic and interpret it in syriac
i’ve posited that esau was a possible porphyriac
then i can p*rs* at sight a polal, hithpolal or hishtaphel
hishtaphel, hishtaphel… i say, that’s a hard one, isn’t it… got it!
and topple any argument it happens that i wish to fell!
and topple any argument it happens that he wish to fell!
and topple any argument it happens that he wish to fell!
and topple any argument it happens that he wish to wish to fell!
then i can date a sample of arabian calligraphy
and tell you what the scribe was wearing, based on the epigraphy!

and tell you whether peoples were nomadic or agrarian
i know the jewish festivals, purimic and kippurian

and catalogue the animals, both pre* and postdiluvian
then i can tell a surplice from a chasuble or maniple
maniple, maniple… oh dear, i suppose it’s not avoidable really…
and reconstruct the library of ancient assurbanipal
and reconstruct the library of ancient assurbanipal
and reconstruct the library of ancient assurbani*banipal

and proved the philistines were almost certainly canadian

he is the very model of a biblical philologist!
