Afikomen!
to the tune of “Oklahoma!”
Afikomen!
Every year I know that I am cursed.
After it’s been hid,
some other kid
is the one who always finds it first.
Afikomen!
If I had a better pair of eyes,
I could have some fun,
I’d be the one
who would get to claim the special prize.
God brought us to the promised land.
And the land that he gave us is grand.
But when I say, “Oy vay!”
I’m only saying, “Lord!
Please let me find it.”
All that I want is to find the
Afikomen! Amen.
