to the tune of “A Spoonful of Sugar”

At every seder every year,

There is an element of fear

When I must eat a bitter herb.

And in the moment that I dread,

The heat goes to my head,

I cough! I sneeze! I whimper and I wheeze! But...

(Chorus)

A spoon of charoses helps the bitter herb go down,

The bitter herb go down, bitter herb go down,

Yes, a spoon of charoses helps the bitter herb go down

In the most delightful way.

So you should keep it in your mind,

If there’s a moment when you find

There’s something dreadful you must do.

It will be better if you addA thing that’s not so bad, A song! A sweet!

A favorite toy or treat!

Cause...(Repeat chorus)
