Lyrics:
This is that age old
Passover tale that's retold
This is what we listen to
While eatin' through those matzah pieces
Climbin’, tilin’
Buildin’ Egyptian cities
We worked hard but prayed to G-d
And He freed us all, so get ready
It's Pesach! (Oh man)
There was a burning bush on fire, man
It's Pesach! (Big fans)
'Cause the Pharoah drew God's ire, man
It's Pesach! (Change pans)
So he took us out of Mitz-ra-yim
It's Pesach! (Let's scram)
So it's bad if you have chametz (Clean it up)
Kids, singin' "ma nishtana" (3x)
'Cause Uptown Passover's comin' to ya (3x)
Seder tonight and we saved you a spot
Don't be slavin', just nosh (6x)
Stop! Say the kiddush
Fill four cups, Manischevitz in 'em
Lots of food, no chametz
Shmulie-O, start to bentsch!
Went from Egypt, Sinai,
All the way to Judea
We showed up and settled down
In the land that we now call Izzy
Kadeish (Urchatz)
Gonna bless the wine then wash your hands
Karpas (Yachatz)
Dip the parsley and break the matza, man
Maggid (Rachtzah)
Tell the story then wash again
Motzi (matzah)
Eat the matzah, it's so crunchy (Break it up)
Kids, singin' "ma nishtana" (3x)
'Cause Uptown Passover's comin' to ya (3x)
Seder tonight and we saved you a spot
Don't be slavin', just nosh (6x)
Before we eat
Lemme tell ya a little story
He said let my people go
Let my people go (3x)
Moses said let my people go
Let my people go
He said let my people go
Let my people go
He sent blood, and froggies
And lice all over their bodies
Wild animals, all angry
Livestock disease, now that's nasty
Boils, hail, fire and locusts
Plague of first born and darkness
Seder tonight and we saved you a spot
Don't be slavin', just nosh (6x)
Uptown Passover (15x)
