[Intro – The Setting]
Is this just dessert?
Is this ceremony?
Caught in the kitchen,
Escaping from old tyranny
Open the door,
Let my people go and see—
We were just slaves,
No rights, no dignity,
Because we worked all day,
No time to play,
Bricks and clay,
No fair pay—
Any way we struggled
Didn’t change our destiny…
You see…
[Verse 1 – Slavery in Egypt]
Long ago in Egypt’s land,
We were stuck, oppressed and scared,
Pharaoh ruled and never cared.
Moses, he took a stand—
Said, “Let them go,” but Pharaoh said, “No way!”
Mammaaaaa, ooo-ooooh,
The work was far too rough—
We cried to God for help, for something better.
But hold on, please hold on—
Redemption’s truly coming!
[Verse 2 – The Plagues Begin]
Too late, the plagues had come,
Blood and frogs were just the start,
Lice and boils broke Egypt’s heart.
Locusts in the sky,
Darkness thick enough to block the sun…
Pharaoh, ooo-oooh (you should’ve let us go!)
You lost your chance—
Now the final plague is on the way…
[Instrumental – Tension Builds]
(Optional: finger snaps, chocolate wrapper rustling, dramatic side glances)
[Operatic Section – Crossing the Sea]
I see a little pathway parting through the sea—
Split it wide! Split it wide!
Will we make it? Wait and see!
Thunder, crashing lightning—
Freedom’s on the other side!
Walls of water (walls of water)
Walls of water (walls of water)
Hurry, we must go!
[The Bismillah Section – Let My People Go!]
We’re just a free tribe, chased by an army!
They were our captors — now they chase us swiftly!
Spare us, O sea, from this monstrosity!
Easy come, easy go,
Will the waters go?!
Lift your staff!
Pharaoh’s Chorus (mocking):
No! We will not let them go!
(Let us go!)
No! We will not let them go!
(Let us go!)
No! We will not let you go!
(Let us go!)
We will not let you go!
(Let us go!)
We will not let you go!
Won’t let you go!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Imma-mia, Imma-mia, Imma-mia let me go
Pharaoh’s gone, and now we all are free, are free, we’re free!
[Rock Section – Journey to Freedom]
Now we’re free and we’re marching to Sinai!
Took our matzah, no time for goodbyes!
Oh baby—this is the taste of freedom, baby!
Dip your treats and sing—
Passover’s a time for remembering!
[Outro – Why We Celebrate]
Oooooh… ooh yeah, ooh yeah…
Ooooooh… freedom really matters,
That’s what this night’s for—
Chocolate just reminds us…
Of something more…
(Any way we dip it…)
“Be Our Guest”
To the tune of “Be Our Guest” from Beauty and the Beast
Be our guest, be our guest,
Dip your fruit, it’s time to rest!
Put our Seder to the test,
With chocolate treats and songs expressed.
Dark or milk, you decide,
We’ve got matzah, spread inside!
Try the truffle—it’s delicious,
This Seder’s so nutritious!
We will tell the tale again,
Of when freedom did begin—
But this time every step will be chocolate-blessed!
Go ahead, grab your spoon,
Sing a plague-time chocolate tune—
Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest!
It’s a Sweet World
To the tune of “It’s a Small World” — Chocolate Seder Parody
It’s a world of cocoa, a world of bite,
It’s a world of flavor, and love and light.
There’s so much that we share,
As we dip and we care—
It’s a sweet world after all!
Chorus:
It’s a sweet world after all,
It’s a sweet world after all,
It’s a sweet world after all,
It’s a sweet, sweet world.
We recall the story with every bite,
We remove our candy, we dim the light.
Though we laugh and we play,
We still honor the way—
Freedom came through darkest night.
(Repeat chorus)
We take joy and sorrow and mix them well,
With a taste of matzah and tales we tell.
From the bitter to sweet,
Every step we repeat—
Helps the story rise and swell!
(Final chorus)

“Passover Submarine”
(To the tune of “Yellow Submarine”)
Verse 1:
In the town where we were slaves,
We ate flatbread for forty days,
But now we dine with chocolate flair,
And treats are floating everywhere!
Chorus:
We all eat from a chocolate Seder plate,
Chocolate Seder plate, chocolate Seder plate!
We all drink from a chocolate kiddush cup,
Chocolate kiddush cup, chocolate kiddush cup!
Verse 2:
The maror’s dipped in cocoa cream,
Charoset made from jellybeans,
This isn’t just a tasty dream—
It’s freedom with a candy theme!
(Repeat chorus)
