LYRICS:
When Moses came down from the mountain
He saw the golden calf When Moses came down from the mountain
He broke the two tablets in half
Oh no...
The Israelites grew tired of waiting For their leader to return
When they still saw no sign from up the mountain They turned to Moshe’s brother Aharon
They said build us an idol (oh no oh no)
The Israelites rejoiced singing and dancing Offered sacrifices to the golden calf
Little did they know that up there on the mountain
Moshe was trying to lessen God’s wrath v
They had built an idol (oh no, oh no)
What God saw was an abomination
He threatened to destroy the Jewish nation
But Moshe pleaded with God
Moshe pleaded with God
He said remember what you promised to Avraham
When Moses came down
from the mountain
He saw the golden calf
When Moses came down
from the mountain
He broke the two tablets in half
Yes he broke the two tablets in half
