Purim 2013, Haman's Song

Haman's Song
"And He Rolled 13th of Adar"

(tune: "When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder")

I just have no use for Mordecai, who will not bow to me,
For such flagrant disrespect I do not care!
So I'll cast the lot to pick a day to kill his family,
And his fellow Jewish people I won't spare.

And he rolled 13th of Adar,
And he rolled 13th of Adar,
And he rolled 13th of Adar
As the day to kill all Jews and take their stuff.

I must go at one to Xerxes with my angry diatribe,
And suggest that he decree we kill all Jews.
To make sure that this will happen I will offer him a bribe.
And I've rolled the dice to see which day to choose.

And he rolled 13th of Adar,
And he rolled 13th of Adar,
And he rolled 13th of Adar
As the day to kill all Jews and take their stuff.
