The Passover Drones
Julia Chaitin I posted earlier has inspired me to
compose a song of my own to the same melody, but
with a slightly different message.
Bibi let those drones fly in Gaza and fire and fire and fire!
Let my People Drone!
(To be sung at the Seder, after Let my people go same tune)
When Hamas shoots from Gaza-land
(Let my people drone)
Where choppers go and phos-frus burns
(Let my people drone)
Chorus:
Go down Bibi
Drones fly in Gaza Land
Tell old Hamas
You'll let my people drone
The Osloids set up Hamastan
(Let my people drone)
Let's terrify them day and night
(Let my people drone)
Chorus
Go down Bibi
Drones fire in Gaza Land
Tell old Hamas
You'll let my people drone
If we want to protect OUR folks
Let my people drone
And have some peace, not security jokes
Let my people drone
Chorus
Go down Bibi
Drones bomb in Gaza Land
Tell old Hamas
You'll let my people drone
Here is the Chaitin original:
A Message from Julia Chaitin, Sapir College
Dingbette Galore! Sapir College's Julia Chaitin (social work) has a
New Song for Passover:
Dear all
I attach here some new verses that I wrote to a well known folk song
that we sing at the Seder… This is one of the wonderful things about
folk songs we can add verses that reflect our times.
Feel free to sing and to pass it on to others who
might want to sing it as well…
Chag sameach

Let their people go
(To be sung at the Seder, after Let my people go same tune)
Julia Chaitin
We occupy Palestine
(Let their people go)
With checkpoints, sieges and arrests
(Let their people go)
Chorus:
Go up Bibi
Up north to Ramallah
Tell old Abbas
We'll let their people go
We've taken way all their rights
(Let their people go)
We terrify them day and night
(Let their people go)
Chorus
Go down Bibi
Way south to Gaza Land
Tell Haniyeh
That we will lift the siege
If we want to protect OUR rights
Let their people go
And have some peace, not endless fight
Let their people go
Chorus
Forward - Bibi
Make peace with Palestine
Honor our Moses
And let their peoples go
