This song sucks Put on your yarmulke, here comes Chanukah So much fun-ukah to celebrate Chanukah Chanukah is the Festival of Lights Instead of one day of presents, we have eight crazy nights When you feel like the only kid in town without a Christmas tree 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 Guess who eats together at the Carnegie Deli? Bowzer from Sha Na Na and Arthur Fonzarelli Paul Newman's half Jewish, Goldie Hawn's half too Put them together, what a fine lookin' Jew! You don't need Deck the Halls or Jingle Bell Rock 'Cause you can spin a dreidel with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock (both Jewish) Put on your yarmulke, it's time for Chanukah The owner of the Seattle Supersonic-ahs celebrates Chanukah O.J. Simpson... not a Jew! 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! Some people think that Ebenezer Scrooge is Well he's not but guess who is? All Three Stooges So many Jews are in show biz Tom Cruise isn't but I heard his agent is Tell your friend Veronica it's time to celebrate Chanukah I hope I get a harmonica on this lovely lovely Chanukah So drink your gin-and-tonic-ah and smoke your marijuana-kah If you really really wanna-kah Have a happy happy happy happy Chanukah! Happy Chanukah!
