The Chanukah Song Lyrics
This is a song that uhh..
There's a lot of Christmas songs out there and uhh..
not too many Chanukah songs.
So uhh..
I wrote a song for all those nice little Jewish kids who don't get to hear any Chanukah songs.
Here we go..."
Here comes Chanukah
So much funukah
To celebrate Chanukah
Chanukah is the festival of lights
Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights
Here's a list of people who are Jewish just like you and me
David Lee Roth lights the menorah
So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah
Bowser from Sha Na Na and Arthur Fonzerelli
Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too
Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew
'Cause you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock- both Jewish
It's time for Chanukah
The owner of the Seattle Supersonicahs
Celebrates Chanukah
But guess who is? Hall of famer Rod Carew- he converted
We got Ann Landers and her sister Dear Abby
Harrison Ford's a quarter Jewish- not too shabby
Well he's not, but guess who is
All three Stooges
So many Jews are in showbiz
Tom Cruise isn't, but I heard his agent is
It's time to celebrate Chanukah
I hope I get a harmonicah
Oh this lovely, lovely Chanukah
So drink your gin and tonicah
And smoke your marijuanikah
If you really, really wannakah
Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Chanukah
Happy Chanukah
this song goes out to all of the lonely jews on christmas who have to endure the constant playing of holiday songs. I love the song, it always makes me laugh and it gives me something to blast during the holidays and I love my gin and tonicah
I have no clue what this song is about.....could someone help me???
smoke that marijuanikah!!!!!!!!!!
adam sandler is a god. ::shrug::
This song is hilarious.I don't exactly like the spoof on Jews,buti have to admit I do tend to LOL when I hear this song.I mean spoofs on anybody are wrong,but it does SOUND like he is trying to make sure the people who do celebrate hanukah have a song like people who celebrate christmas.
Well most GOOD funny songs usaly take the piss outa something because its funny :P i make a quick reference to Weird Al :D
this isn't a spoof on anyone. if you knew anything you'd know that adam sandler is Jewish.
The proof is in the pudding my friends.
Adam Sandler said, before performing this on a Christmas episode of SNL, "growing up, we only had songs like "dreidel dreidel dreidel" to sing during Chanukah while all my other friends had Christmas carols like "Jingle Bell Rock"." not a direct quote, but close enough.
that's why he wrote this song. so that the Chanukah celebratin' kids would have something more to sing.
now isn't that sweet?
Singing it tonight!
