Take Me Out To The Seder

(To the tune of, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame!")

Take me out to the Seder

Take me out with the crowd.

Feed me on matzah and chicken legs,

I don't care for the hard-boiled eggs.

And its root, root, root for Elijah

That he will soon reappear.

And let's hope, hope, hope that we'll meet

Once again next year!



Take me out to the Seder

Take me out with the crowd.

Read the Haggadah

And don't skip a word.

Please hold your talking,

We want to be heard.

And lets, root, root, root for the leader

That he will finish his spiel

So we can nosh, nosh, nosh and by-gosh

Let's eat the meal!!!

Passover Things

(to the tune of "My Favorite Things")

Cleaning and cooking and so many dishes

Out with the hametz, no pasta, no knishes

Fish that's gefillted, horseradish that stings

These are a few of our Passover things.



Matzoh and karpas and chopped up haroset

Shankbones and Kiddish and Yiddish neuroses

Tante who kvetches and uncle who sings

These are a few of our Passover things.



Motzi and maror and trouble with Pharoahs

Famines and locusts and slaves with wheelbarrows

Matzoh balls floating and eggshell that cling

These are a few of our Passover things.



When the plagues strike

When the lice bite

When we're feeling sad

We simply remember our Passover things

And then we don't feel so bad.
