OORAH’S ALMA MATER- Oorah- Composed by Zale Newman, Lyrics by Menachem Basch & Sheya Fromowitz- Shmoorg 3
(T.T.T.O. Yehuda!’s Kol Yisroel Chaveirim- Yehuda & Friends)

VERSE 1:
Sitting in my classroom
I can’t seem to concentrate,
daydreams painting memories
how much longer can I wait?
All around me wonder
what I’m thinking about,
if they knew they’d
all be jealous, no doubt.

The look on their faces
says ‘tell us what you see’,
so I begin the story
of the camp we call ‘TZ’.
All the more I tell them
the more they want to hear,
they’d like to come to
BoyZone next year!

CHORUS 1:
Oorah, do you know
just how much we’ve grown,
The BoyZone magic
touches our hearts.
We will always be together
we’re all one family,
not just for now
but for eternity!

VERSE 2:
Throughout the year connected
a kesher that is tied,
a friend with whom to talk with
to learn and be my guide.
Shabbatons and trips that
show you really care,
that is why
we hold you oh so dear!

The man we all look up to,
Rabbi Chaim Mintz,
the spiritual mentor
of our experience,
A staff as good as this one
is something that’s unheard,
but we’ve got the best campers
in the world!

CHORUS 2:
An Oorah friday night
a spark that will ignite,
a Jewish soul who’s
yearning to shine bright,
So now I say ‘thank you’
for all the love you’ve shown,
indebted to you
forever BoyZone!

VERSE 3:
All my friends were so happy
they’d finally have a place,
to spend the coming summer
in Oorah’s warm embrace.
Then my teacher called out
‘no talking in this class!’,
but if it’s about Oorah
I’ll let it pass!

CHORUS 1:
Oorah, do you know
just how much we’ve grown,
The BoyZone magic
touches our hearts.
We will always be together
we’re all one family,
not just for now
but for eternity!

CHORUS 2:
An Oorah friday night
a spark that will ignite,
a Jewish soul who’s
yearning to shine bright,
So now I say ‘thank you’
for all the love you’ve shown,
indebted to you
forever BoyZone!

A staff as good as this one
is something that’s unheard,
but we’ve got the
best campers in the world!
Yes, we’ve got the best campers in the world!

CHORUS 1:
Oorah, do you know
just how much we’ve grown,
The BoyZone magic
touches our hearts.
We will always be together
we’re all one family,
not just for now
but for eternity!

CHORUS 2:
An Oorah friday night
a spark that will ignite,
a Jewish soul who’s
yearning to shine bright,
So now I say ‘thank you’
for all the love you’ve shown,
indebted to you
forever BoyZone!
