WHAT DOES HAMAN SAY (Lyrics)

King says come

Queen says no

Advisor says it’s time for her to go

With Vashti gone

Achashveirosh

Needs a queen to call his own

Esther is brought

Shushan’s abuzz

As the king goes oo la la

But there’s one sound, that no one knows:

WHAT DOES HAMAN SAY???

Second to the king-a-king-a-king!

Bling-bling-bling-bling-blinga-blinga-bling!

Special signet ring-a-ring-a-ring!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

Ba ba ba ba ba ba BOW!

Ba ba ba ba ba ba BOW!

Ba ba ba ba ba ba BOW!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

On your, on your knees you go!

On your, on your knees you go!

On your, on your knees you go!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

You you you you you you Jew you Jew!

You you you you you you Jew you Jew!

You you you you you you Jew you Jew!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

Mordechai

Though he knows

Haman eyes him

He’s composed

Haman’s paused

He stands still

No he won’t bend to his will

Haman is mad, this Jew’s too bold

Time to kill him and his kind

Makes a decree, to be enforced

Kill the jews with no remo-o-o-o-orse

But of co-o-ourse

he l-o-o-o-st

Esther knew and told a-cha-shve-ro-o-osh

He went for a stroll

Came back and behold

WHAT DOES HAMAN SAY???

Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-NO!!!

Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-NO!!!

Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-NO!!!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

Pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-put me down!

Pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-put me down!

Pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-pu-put me down!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!

A-hee-ahee ha-hee!

WHAT HAMAN SAY???

Boo-hoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo!

WHAT DOES HAMAN SAY???

Now Haman and his sons

Are ancient history

Hanging from his own gallows

While they hang from a tree

What is your sound?

We don’t care anyway

You perished with your family

We’re here to staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

Arur Haman asher

bikesh l’abdi

baruch Mordechai

(G-d sent us a wake-up. We davened and Hashem forgave us. So Haman failed to slay us.)

ha’ Yehudi.

I’m a Jew

I know who

Really runs the show

(G-d is the creator)
