Adam Sandler – The Chanukah Song

(Album: Revolutions in Sound: Warner Bros. Records: The First Fifty Years) (1995)

Spoken: “Okay,  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!”

A,    E,     D,    E

Put on your yarmulke, Here comes Hanukkah,
So much funukkah, To celebrate Hanukkah,

        Hanukkah 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 does James Caan, Kirk Douglas & the late Dina Shore-ah
Guess who eats together at the Carnegie Deli?
Bowzer from Sha Na Na and Arthur Fonzerelli

        Paul Newman’s half Jewish, Goldie Hawn’s half too
        Put them together, what a fine looking Jew!

D]  You don¹t need “Deck the Halls” or “Jingle Bell Rock”

E] Cause you can spin the dreidl with Captain Kirk & Mr. Spock– Jewish!

Put on your yarmulke, Its time for Hanukkah

The owner of the Seattle Supersonic-ahs, Celebrates Hanukkah

        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!
D]  So many Jews are in showbiz
E] Tom Cruise isn’t, but I heard his agent is

Tell your friend Veronica,      Its time you celebrate Hanukkah
I hope I get a harmonica,      On this lovely, lovely Hanukkah

So drink your gin and tonic-ah, And smoke your marijuani-kkah
If you really, really wanna-kkha, Have a happy, happy, … Hanukkah !
