It’s another wonderful morning
And I’ll start it with a song
I will say my Modeh Ani
Won’t you like to sing along
All we need to say is Thank You
I’m glad that I woke up
It’s another wonderful morning
And I’ll start it with a song
Modeh Ani Lifanecha - I’m as thankful as can be
Melech Chai Vikayum - That a King as great as He
Shehechezarta Bi Nishmasi - Returned my life to me
Modeh Ani Lifanecha - I’m as thankful as can be

Gan Izzy, Let’s hear it
All that Spirit
We’re a Jewish camp
And we’re proud to declare it
You’ve helped us achieve a way so true
We’ll always remember you!!
* * * * *
Thumbs up
A dudada, a dudada, a dudadada
A dudada, a dudada, a dudadada
Add one motion each round
Feet apart / Feet together / Knee squat
Chin up / Tongue out / Turn around
* * * * *
To love a fellow Jew
Just the same as you,
Is the basis of our holy Torah
He may be far from me
Across the widest sea
But still I’ll always love him just the same
For Seventy, Eighty years
A Neshama wears and tears
Just to do a favor for another
Love him with all your heart,
The heavens spread apart
For every Jew is really our brother
[Sister!]
* * * * *
We’ve existed so long
‘Cuz the Torah kept us strong
And the Torah will never disappear
Oh No!
Through the ages it was brought
By the children who were taught
To follow it and constantly declare
I’m a Jew and I’m proud
And I’ll sing it out loud
Cuz forever that’s what I’ll be
I’m a Jew and I’m proud
And it’s without a doubt
That Hashem is always watching over me
* * * * *
Uptown, downtown, all around the town,
It’s kosher all day long
And we must never, ever, ever
Mix milk and meat together
So come on and sing this kosher song
Badadadadadada
* * * * *
Am Yisroel have no fear
Moshiach will be here this year
Am Yisroel have no fear
Moshiach will be here this year
We want Moshiach now
We want Moshiach now
We want Moshiach now
We don’t want to wait
* * * * *
Oh every morning
When I’m so sleepy
I open up my eyes and say
Thank You Hashem for my Neshama
And for giving me another day
* * * * *
G.I. bursting with spirit
A great camp, you better believe it
Always on the run, playing games and having fun
Together forever as one
Just take a look around
And you’re about to see
A camp that’s bursting full fun
And vitality!
* * * * *
Waddally atcho waddally atcho
A doodlidoo a doodlidoo
Waddally atcho waddally atcho
A doodlidoo a doodlidoo
It’s the simplest song,
There isn’t much to it
All you gotta do is
Doodlidoo it
I like this song,
But the part I like best is:
Doodlidoodli, Doodlidoodli, Doodlidoodlidoo.

Jog
and jog and kick to the right, kick to the left
Jog and jog and kick to the right, kick to
the left
Then you turn around
and touch your toes and touch the ground
Tug and tug at the
heavy rope, tug and tug at heavy rope
and then you're through!
Stretch to the right and left, give a bow and lean forward and back
Lift your feet up as high as they go, then stand straight and do as
so:
Touch your head and your shoulders and your knees and your toes
and your knees and
your toes and then stop!
Now that you all
know
This is the way to go
Bunk Whatever, reach up to the top!!
* * * * *
Jog and jog and jog
And split your feet and touch the ground
(4x)
Forward, side, together
Forward, side, together
Forward, side, together,
Jump jump jump, once again (not again!)

Make the world a bit more bright
Give Tzedakah to the poor
When they come knocking at your door
Kosher meat is what we eat
Cuz Kosher meat just can’t be beat
Y-E-S-H-I-V-A
Yeshiva is the only way
Gan Yisroel is the best
We are better than the rest
All you others watch out
Cuz we’re gonna knock you out

Waiting for so long now
Two thousand years
Waiting for so long now
We cannot wait no more
Whom are we waiting for?
The righteous Moshiach
And what will be
When he will come?
When he will come

And on the trees there will be growing candy
And everything will be so nice and dandy
And the main thing will be:
Shalom in the East and Shalom in the West
Shalom in the North and Shalom in the South
Peace in the East and peace in the West
Peace in the North and peace in the South

It’s a great camp after all,
Machaneynu Gan Izzy.

Can you tie them in a bow
Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a Gan Izzy soldier?

Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a Gan Izzy soldier
Do your eyeballs droop?

Seven little ducks that I once knew
Fat ones, skinny ones there were too
But the one little duck with the feather on its back
She led the others with a quack quack quack
And down to the river, they did go
A wiggle waggle, wiggle waggle, to and frow
But the one little duck with the feather on its back
She led the others with a quack quack quack

It’s a great Gan Izzy Smile

Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
She welcomes in Shabbat on Friday night,
With a candle and prayer, she spreads a ‘lotta light.
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
After she lights the Shabbat candle,
She goes and prays all that she can handle.
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
Dressed in all, of her fine,
She’s now ready to pray over the wine.
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
The best part of the day, comes right now,
She can feast on Shabbat cuisine, my, oh wow!
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
Now on Shabbat morning she skips to shul,
As if she’s off to the pool,
With all her excitement and with zeal,
For all she has, she thanks G-d, for real!
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
Now again, she gets to eat,
Fish, cholent and ‘lotsa meat,
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
When the sky gets dark, and three stars come out,
It’s time to make Havdallah, she frowns and gives a pout.
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
She hates to say goodbye,
And that’s no lie,
But especially with Shabbat,
When it leaves, she does cry!
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
At least we know that in 6 days time,
We’ll all be able to repeat this rhyme.
Magalina, Hagalina, Hokah, Tokah, Wokah, Pokah,
Hukah, Tukah, Wukah, is her name.
Shabbat will return again, so don’t you fret
Farewell to all who, Magalina has met!!

Everywhere we go
People want to know
Who we are
So we tell them
We are Gan Yisroel
The mighty Gan Yisroel
The Rebbes Gan Yisroel
The greatest Gan Yisroel
And if you don’t hear us, we’ll yell a little louder
* * * * *
Don’t walk in front of me
I may not follow
Don’t’ walk behind me
I may not lead
Just walk beside me and be my friend
And together we will walk in the ways of Hashem

I like Gan Izzy,
I like the activities,
I like the trips and all the swimming too,
I like the counselors and all my friends,
A CGI, A CGI, A CGI, A CGI…
* * * * *
All the animals that I eat
Must chew their cuds and have split feet
Kosher meat just can’t be beat
I eat only kosher
So every time you’re in the market
Only buy food with a Kosher sign on it
It’s good for me and it’s good for you
And what do you know?
Hashem loves it too!
* * * * *
Hey Gan Izzy, stand up straight
Got no need to elaborate

A little bit louder now, Shout!
A little bit lower now, Whisper!
