(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)
