Hope you purchased your high holiday seats Looking for a better way to get my Judaism 'Stead of getting on the internet and checking out the Maccabeats Now let's step into the synagogue, time to get this davening on Repent before our chance to get into the book of life's gone Let's search our hearts and think back, let's reflect on the year Seems like just yesterday we did this, now a new one is here Trust me, I'm an R-O-S-H H-A-S-H-A-N-A-H master Ain't nobody getting through that shmoneh esreh faster Sitting in a room that's got more Jews than the cast of Madagascar Atonement's what I'm after It's a new year, now we gotta do something That's our message to the people, from Tel Aviv to Monsey It's a new year, now we gotta do something All the Jewish people, from Tel Aviv to Monsey Can go we back, and hear the shofar Today is the day, we'll start the year over Yes it's Rosh Hashana and we'll say Shana Tova Yeah we'll say shana tova When yomtov's over, all that t'shuvah, I can feel my heart beat But I'm not gonna stop 'cause I got Yom Kippur in little more than one week ROSH! Hashanah's on. Praying to the Lord trying to right my wrongs Get a little chill when I hear that "tekiah gedolah" So now I'm rollin' through this davening feelin' so right Got this melody for ma'arivand it goes like... Praying for hours and when all that is through I know exactly what I'm gonna dip my apple into... HONEY -- because we want a year that's happy and sweet On this holiday no one tried to kill us but hey who cares, let's eat! Conservative, orthodox, reform, or whatever, no matter what kind of Jew you are Our voices join worldwide, and we all say Shana Tova Sha-na-na-na-na-na Tova My Jewish people say...
