Lyrics:
May you be signed and sealed for a Shanah Tova
From the first of Tishrei til the year's over
The King should remember every good thing
That you've done and bring you a great blessing
May you be successful in all you do
You and the rest of your family too
Learn lots of Torah, make tons of money
With a year that's sweeter than apples and honey
The first day is the first of Tishrei
Pay no heed to what the nations say
That made up month called January
Is not the New Year, and it will never be
I don't really care if the whole world stares
At some ball falling down town in Time Square
At midnight, I won't kiss a stranger, this
Is ridiculous, and not snious
You can drink champagne til it rots your brain
But the head of the year will remain the same
When the time is ready, there won't be confetti
Just shofars sounding strong and steady
Don't fall back when you hear the call
Let your heart return to the SOURCE OF ALL
The end is here, the beginning's near
Get your self in gear for a great New Year
You'll be signed and sealed for a Shanah Tova
From the first of Tishrei til the year's over
The King should remember every good thing
That you've done and bring you a great blessing
May you be successful in all you do
You and the rest of your family too
Learn lots of Torah, make tons of money
With a year that's sweeter than apples and honey
Five thousand seven hundred seventy
And four years ago we all came to be
G-d made Adam and Eve started sinning
Been that way ever since the beginning
And since were just made of dust we must
Place trust in the ONE who created us
Like Avraham willing to give up his son
As a burnt offering to the HOLY ONE
But HASHEM did not want Yitzchak dead
It was just a test G-d blessed him instead
So now like the stars, and the sand in sea
And the dust of the earth, his seed shall be
That's you and me, for G-d might ignore us
If not for the merit of the ones before us
So lets give thanks, and sing every Psalm
To the King who holds us in His palm
You'll be signed and sealed for a Shanah Tova
From the first of Tishrei til the year's over
The King should remember every good thing
That you've done and bring you a great blessing
May you be successful in all you do
You and the rest of your family too
Learn lots of Torah, make tons of money
With a year that's sweeter than apples and honey
At the head of the year every case is tried
And the Judge decides who lives and dies
But repentance prayer and charity
Can reverse the severity of the decree
Remember your standing before the King
So stop doing any evil thing
Control yourself, give back what you stole
And return to the Holy with all your soul
Call out and pray three times a day
In the hands of the potter like a piece of clay
May you be guided on the perfect way
And from the path may you never stray
Then give all the charity you can spare
Show the poor people how much you care
HASHEM should see how nicely you share
And bless you to become a millionaire
You'll be signed and sealed for a Shanah Tova
From the first of Tishrei til the year's over
The King will remember every good thing
That you've done and bring you a great blessing
May you be successful in all you do
You and the rest of your family too
Learn lots of Torah, make tons of money
With a year that's sweeter than apples and honey
