Great Seder song

Great personal reminiscence of a "traditional" seder-opening song:
There's no seder like Mom's seder
Like no seder we know.
Everything about it is appealing--
Everything halakha will allow.
Don't you know we get a happy feeling
when Abie's stealing the matzah now.

There's no people like Jew people;
they smile when they are flogged.
Even when they're fleeing from a big pogrum,
the Passover melodies they will hum.
Let's remember triumphs over all that scum;
Let's go on with the seder!
