lyrics

They voted the public bus,
Won't run on Shabbos,
She said that only affects the poor,
A car they can't afford,
So she pushed a law that bars,
Cabinet Members in their cars,
So, they too can feel,
What the poor people feel,

Thank you Mrs. Zandberg,
For your contribution,
For your helping hand,
For Shabbos in the Land,
Now, they too can taste,
The wonderful gift of Shabbos,
Now, they can understand,
The beauty they've spread through the Land,

Only rich car owners going to the beach,
Why should they suffer, chasing a dream?
Why should only poor riders of the bus,
Enjoy the beauty of Shabbos?
For this move that can't be beat,
It was worth giving Meretz every seat,
Every little thing that you do,
Hashem counts as merits for you,
So many merits for you!

Thank you Mrs. Zandberg...

about

Bumy Goldson New York

Bumy Goldson's music is intellectually perceptive and emotionally powerful.
Too many people are caught up in the illusions of "what's going on" in the news but tend to miss that right in front of them is a beautiful world unfolding.
Bumy's music will stir in you a longing and a way to see the real world more dreamy than you can ever imagine.
