The Latke Song

I am so mixed up that I cannot tell you.
I'm sitting in the blender turning brown.
I've made friends with the onion and the flour,
And the cook is scouting oil in town.

I sit here wondering what will come of me,
I can't be eaten looking as I do.
I need someone to take me out and cook me
Or I'll really end up in a royal stew.

I am a latke, I am a latke                              )
And i am waiting for Chanukah to come.  ) X2

Every holiday has food so special,
I'd like to have that same attention too.
I do not want to spend life in this blender,
Wondering what I'm supposed to do.

Matza and charoset are for Pesach
Chopped lier and challah for Shabbat
Blintzes on Shavuot are delicious,
And gefilte fish no holiday's without

Chorus

I'ts important that I have an understanding
Of what it is that I'm supposed to do
You see there are many who are homeless,
With no homes, no clothes and very little food.

It's so important that we all remember,
That while we have most of the things we need,
We must remember those whohave so little,
We must help them, we mut be the ones to feed.

Chorus

Hope this helps.
