Six13 – Who Is This Haman! (A “Where Is My Husband” adaptation for Purim)

Hey, man! Seriously, what's the deal with this guy? Haman was just one in a long line of people who tried to exterminate the Jews -- and, like the rest of them, failed. Today, we commemorate that millennia-old triumph by celebrating Purim -- with costumes, merriment, groggers, hamantashen, and of course... the wildly popular neo-soul anthem by Raye. Watch and listen closely for the (very) abbreviated story!

LYRICS
I need you to tell me!
Baby, who the heck is this Haman?
Why's he hating us so much? He's crazy!
Oh baby, now we're spinning our groggers
Eating our "hamantashers"
Purim, Purim, Purim, Purim...
Achashverosh was the king, Vashti was the queen
And then Esther was the queen, Mordechai foresaw it
Mordechai refused to bow to Haman
And Haman hated Jews and tried to get rid of them
He chose a day to kill; the king decreed that he could go about it
Esther rescued the Jews of Shushan
We read megillah 'bout it, 'bout it
And now we dance and cheer, uh-huh, uh-huh
Uh, v'na-, v'nahafochu
I need you to tell me!
Baby, who the heck is this Haman?
Why's he hating us so much? He's crazy!
Oh baby, now we're spinning our groggers
Eating our "hamantashers"
Giving out mishloach manot, our mishloach manot
Purim is coming...
