Intro

    
    
Put on your yarmulke, here comes Hanukkah
It's so much fun-akkah, 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 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 Fonzerrelli.
(pause for giggle)
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 the dreidl with Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock--both Jewish! 
Put on your yarmulke, it's time for Hanukkah,
The owner of the Seattle Supersonic-ahs celebrates Hanukkah.
O.J. Simpson... not a Jew!
But guess who is...Hall of Fame-er... 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 Ebeneezer 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 you celebrate Hanukkah
I hope I get a harmonica, on this lovely, lovely Hanukkah.
So drink your gin-and-tonic-ah, and smoke your marajuanic-ah,
If you really, really wanna-kah, have a happy, happy, happy, happy
Hanukkah.
