Latkes for Breakfast

LATKES FOR BREAKFAST
Latkes in the morning
With sour cream
When I go to sleep at night
That’s what I dream
I don’t want one, two, three or four
I’ll eat a thousand or maybe more
Golden brown and so delicious
With applesauce they are nutritious
Potatoes and eggs, salt and pepper
A little bit of onion, now mix it all together
CHORUS
I love latkes in my tummy
Better than brisket, or apples and honey
Some kids like gelt and birthday cake
But when I hear that sizzle my knees start to shake
CHORUS
Last night I had the greatest dream
I was surfing on a cloud of latkes
When I looked up I saw latkes
When I looked down I saw latkes
When I looked all around, I saw latkes!
I’d rather eat latkes than walk on the moon
I’d rather eat latkes than clean my room
CHORUS

Bevakasha

BEVAKASHA
Bevakasha, bevakasha
Please, please
When you want falafel and apple pie
Or a bright, red shiny new bike to ride
When you need some hugs and smooches too
Want to hug your Bubbe all afternoon
Bevakasha, bevakasha
Please, please
If you can’t wait to help with the Seder plate
Head out to the pond for a midnight skate
Where might that afikomen be?
If you want a hint try saying please
Bevakasha, bevakasha
Please, please
Every single day it seems
Is full of opportunities
There's nothing to it
It's as easy as can be
Say bevakasha, just say please
Bevakasha, bevakasha
Please, Please

SHABBAT SHALOM
Shabbat Shalom, Shabbat Shalom
Come on home, turn off that phone Shabbat Shalom
Shabbat Shalom, Shabbat Shalom
It's been a long week now it's time for a treat
Shabbat Shalom
Every Friday night, we eat by candlelight
Oh the world is right, I'm with my family
Share the challah, pour the wine
Say the prayers then suppertime
Close my eyes and realize
There's no place I'd rather be
Shabbat Shalom, Shabbat Shalom
Come on home, put down that phone Shabbat Shalom
Shabbat Shalom, Shabbat Shalom
It's been a long week now it's time for a treat
Shabbat Shalom
Every Friday night, we eat by candlelight
Kiddush cups for all of us, I'm with my family
Invite our friends both old and new
To share the blessing, share the food
Study Torah, rest and sing
Shabbat’s the best of everything
CHORUS
Every Friday night, we eat by candlelight
We hold each other tight, this is my family
Share the challah, pour the wine
Say the prayers then suppertime
Come Havdalah I’m feeling fine
The perfect place to be
Shabbat Shalom, Shabbat Shalom
Come on home, put down that phone Shabbat Shalom
It's been a long week now it's time for a treat
Shabbat Shalom

Purim Party Song
This is gonna be a purim song
This is gonna be a purim song
So get some hamantaschen and start singing along
This is a purim party song
Put your costume on and come with me
We’ll read the Megillah and you will see
Just why we celebrate, it’s because we’re free
This is our purim party song
Bridge
So we say l’chaim and parade all through town
Give some tzedekah, then jump up and down
Come to our crazy purim party now
Mordechai and Esther were brave and strong
But Haman the wicked was mean and wrong
Thanks to Hashem we’ve been here all along
Singing this purim party song
So put on your masks and grab some noisemakers
We’ll laugh and we’ll eat (joke) and dance with our shakers
And we’ll sing this purim party song, all night long
You know I wait for purim every year
On the 14th of Adar it’s finally here
It’s my favorite holiday, so let me hear you cheer
While we sing our purim party song
Love to sing our purim party song

Flood's Gonna Come
04:03

FLOOD’S GONNA COME
God said to Noah, “I’ll tell you what to do
You’ve got to build an ark, like a floating zoo
You can’t take one, you gotta take two of every animal
Every frog and skunk and kangaroo
Cause the flood’s gonna come
The water’s gonna rise
The floods gonna come
Better get/comeS inside
Noah was six hundred years old
But when God started talking, Noah did as he was told
God was angry at the wickedness of every man
Except for Noah, he alone would understand
Cause the flood’s gonna come
The water’s gonna rise
The floods gonna come
Better get/comeS inside
Noah built the ark, while his neighbors laughed
At the crazy guy building a boat for a couple giraffes
But Noah kept working, all night and day
With his family, and this is what he’s say Chorus
All animals went into the Ark
The wolves did howl, and the dogs did bark
And the storm clouds came, filled up the sky
And the rain started pouring, was Noah surprised?
No he wasn’t surprised Chorus
For forty days and forty nights
The storm kept raging, no land in sight
For forty days and forty nights
The storm kept raging, no land in sight
From valleys low to mountains high
The ocean nearly touched the sky
After many months at sea
God sent a wind, a drying breeze
And when the dove did not return
They got out of the ark, lessons learned Chorus

It’s been a long and beautiful day
The sun got tired and went away
The moon is rising big and bright
Now it’s time to say goodnight
