[HANASHIR:2395] The first of Adar!

[NeilNFW <NeilNFW...>]

OK, I'll be the guinea pig
If you like it, use it, but attribute the words to me and the music to Sam
Cooke

ANOTHER SHUSHAN NIGHT
(to the tune of "Another Saturday Night")

Another Shushan night and the King wants to party
But Queen Vashti won't come down and dance
Throw her out, time to make a new start-y
A new shot at romance

We're gonna have a pageant
So he can find the girl of his dreams
Oh, Esther is so pretty
And also smart and witty
She's a lock to be the queen

Another Shushan night; party with no resistance
With Queen Esther-the King's new wife
But Haman's lurking off in the distance
To terrorize her life

When Haman hatched his evil plan
The Jews were destined to die
But Esther she was fated
To be the one related
To a cat named Mordechai

Another Shushan night and the Queen needs some courage
To plead her people's case before the King
Mordechai said "Hey cousin, don't be nervous
You're doing the right thing."

The King, he set that Haman straight
It was a great day to be alive
The Jews they were allowed
To stand up and be proud
Of being members of the tribe

Another Shushan night and we're all going to party
Mordechai is dancing in the street
The king and Esther gave all the Jews a new start-y
On Purim life is sweet


That's it, hope you like it!
