So what does it mean?
עבודה
The word
Avoida — Hebrew for work, labour, service. The same word used for the service in the Beis Hamikdash and for the plain hard work of a day.
?
The question
“What's the avoida?” means: what is actually being asked of me, right now, in this moment — not in general, not tomorrow.

The music
From Joey Newcomb's “what's the avoida of this nigun?” to the Early Shabbos Band anthem — the question became a chorus.
