    And who does Mama teach to mend and tend and fix,

    Real Lyric: And who does Mama teach to mend and tend and fix,Preparing me to marry whoever Papa picks?The daughter, the daughter! Tradition!



    The story:

    I've known the Fiddler on the Roof soundtrack for a very long
    time, since my childhood, my mom would play it often, including
    the song "Tradition". I never sung the song out loud to anyone
    but I'd whisper the lyrics to myself. I only realized in the past few
    months I had been saying "whoever papa kiss". I used to think
    there might be some logic to it, but only today at age 22 did I
    realize there is none. This bit is obviously about arranged
    weddings. What this assumes then is a tradition of the DAD
    kissing the potential partner for their daughters??To find out
    what, if they're a good kisser? The image of the dad lightly
    kissing each suitor and then shaking his head going "no no...not
    right..." is so absurd in my head right now
    Or does it assume that the dad goes out on dates with these
    potential suitors and whoever he kisses is the one his daughter
    should marry?? I don't know...
