Lyrics to song:
Three months ago, they touch down
Straight from JFK
Said they'd have to work hard, every single day
Folding clothes, milking cows
Feeding chicks-dont you wonder how?
We've come a long way here we are Kulanu on Shluchot

Seven cool New Yorkers
Looking for some fun
Really loved Long Island, hebrew's not their tongue
Wired up, they're on line
DVD's every kind
They've come a long way, no big deal, Kulanu on Shluchot

Dovi's feeling fine now
Loves the holy land
Wants to be in Smallville, might be Superman
Staying cool, dont get mad
300 hungry cows, they dont smell so bad
He's come a long way
Feeling fine with Kulanu on Shluchot
Ephraim loves the Mets now
Wants to be in Shea
Knows hes doing right now
With Mrs. D and Mr. K
First and Third, double play
Suited up, he's sure on his way
He's come a long way, might steal home with Kulanu on Shluchot

A verse now for Yehuda
Always lends a hand
When it comes to washing dishes, he gives the commands
Snapping shots round the world
Lindsey Lohan, hey, she might be the girl
He's come a long way, he's in charge Kulanu on Shluchot

Ilan, he's our man yeah
No one's focused more
Surfing out to cyberspace thats what an X-box's for
Pinat Chai, fossil finds
Google once-can't say whats on his mind
He's come a long way, Mr. Cool, with Kulanu on Shluchot

Our femme fatale is Shaina, never at a loss
The guys start getting crazy, she let's them know who's boss
Kol-Bo days taking stock
Backstreet Boys they can really rock
She's come a long way, she's got style with Kulanu on Shluchot

Jordan, he's our spokesman
Eloquence and charm
Might give up on Lawrence, and live here on the farm
Flies first class from town to town
Knows a million facts just can't get him down
He's come a long way, winning smile with Kulanu on Shluchot

Stand up and cheer for Elliott
Got plans and no one denies
Deal cars to New York big shots or a schwarma enterprise
Make it rich, girl of his dreams
Loves kibbutz, always knows just what he means
He's come a long way, riding high with Kulanu on Shluchot

The queen of Education
Lauren Schiowitz
Let's say Congratulations Kibbutz is like the Ritz
Always calm sees the light
Daily blog, she might sell the rights
She comes a long way, almost home with Kulanu on Shluchot

Give it up now for Ms. Miller
Our Torah teaching ace
From the land of the great Vikings
Try to keep up with her pace
Early morn coffee pangs
Time for class you know it goes off with a bang
She's come a long way, made some noise with Kulanu on Shluchot

Holding down the fort now
Mr. K and Mrs. D
Just tell them what you need now
The Kubota's on its way
They're in sync, doin fine
What'd you think? It's all fun who counts the overtime
It's been a long way, so long to Kulanu on Shluchot
