A Lion King Passover
Lyrics by Six13
We're eating the matzah!
For eight nights and days
We're eating the matzah!
So put that bread away
We had to hurry from the land we were slaves
So we're chametz-free, culinarily
I'm eating a matzah!
And who doesn't love some good matzah?
What's a matzah?
Nothin'. What's a matzah with you?
We had to hurry from the land we were slaves
So we're chametz-free, culinarily
We're eating the matzah!
And the seder plate
Helps us tell our story
At the seder
The seder tonight
Seder to
Seder tonight!
With our prayers of hope
Thanking God above
And the seder plate
Helps us tell our story
At the seder
The seder tonight
Now, Pharaoh, you're a mighty king
But I'm telling you, beware
You come into my palace
Making threats, Moses, you dare?
Your days of making Jews your slaves
Are done forevermore
And if you challenge God
Ten plagues will shake you to your core
I'm telling you, you'd best listen to me
Or God will bring your kingdom to its knees
It's time to let my people go, you see
'Cause we just can't wait
To be free
Ma nishtana halailah hezeh
Mikol haleilot?
Mi chamocha, nedar bakodesh
Nora t'hilot?
Ma nishtana halailah?
In the days we prepare for the seder
It seems like we'll never be done
There's more to clean than can ever be cleaned
Grab a candle and search for the crumbs
When the seder table is ready
And all the chametz has been found
Our family arrives, and the sun leaves the sky
At the table, we'll gather around
At the seder tonight
