Six13 – Matza Mia! An ABBA Passover

MATZA MIA! A generation ago, @OfficialABBA 👩 🧔 🧔‍♂️ 👩‍🦰 captivated the world with their catchy hooks and flashy Swede-pop style. Today, they're being rediscovered everywhere from dance clubs to TIkTok. And as they say at the Seder, in EVERY generation, someone rises up to try to destroy us, but G-d delivers us from them. What if someone were to combine these two enduring phenomena? Hm...

Giving Thanks We're Free | Take a Chance on Me
If you just rewind
To an ancient time
We were slaves, you see
God had heard our plea
Sayin’ “Let my people go,”
Moses came to town
But the Pharaoh just said no
And the plagues came down
Feeling so alone
Bitterness was all we'd known
But we still believed
And He split the sea
Now we're no longer oppressed
God, He heard our cry
We're a nation truly blessed
Am Yisrael Chai
Giving thanks we're free
(That's all we want to do, Bubbe)
Giving thanks we're free
Jews Are Free | Dancing Queen
You can sing, you can dine
Having the four cups of wine
Ooh, eat marror, dip parsley
Now that the Jews are free
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (That Matza By Midnight) | Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)
Half past ten
It's such a long affair
There are so many prayers
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! that matzah by midnight
Find the afikoman 'cause the hour is late
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! that matzah by midnight
I want all the prizes but I can't stay awake
Matzah Pizza! | Mamma Mia!
Take one look, this meal is fit for a king
I can't cook but I can make this one thing
Matzah pizza, here we go again
My, my, every night for dinna
Matzah pizza, different kind of bread
My, my, just how much I eat ya
Yes, you have many carbs and
You tend to fall apart, but
My, my, how I love unleavened dough
Matzah pizza, you're so apropos
Just like leavin' Egypt long ago
