Lyrics:
MANY YEARS AGO THERE LIVED A KING NAMED ANTIOCHUS
HE ISSUED MANY HARSH DECREES THEY ALL WERE QUITE ATROCIOUS
JUDAH MACCABEE TOOK THE FIGHT UP WITH HIS BROTHERS
GOOD VS BAD, TRAYF VERSUS KOSHER

NOW YOU GET OVER HERE WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT SAYFER?
GET AWAY FROM THERE, YOU KNOW THAT LEARNING IS FORBIDDEN
LISTEN OFFICER, YOU KNOW I THINK THAT YOU’RE MISTAKEN
GOT MY DRAIDLE HERE, JUST PLAYIN’ DRAIDLE HERE

PRE CHORUS
Fry up some latkes
Get gifts and chochkiz
Make bubby kvell
Go get some gelt

One tiny cruz was all the kohanim discovered
All the other oil fit for use had been uncovered
We lit up the menorah although no jugs yet remained
A miracle occurred, it lasted for 8 days

And so now on Chuf Hay
We gather family around
So we can celebrate
Play with your draidel
Will you get nun gimmel shin or hay
Ness Gadol
Huyuh shum or poe
Yeah, that’s what you say
Depends on where you play

PRE CHORUS
Fry up some latkes
Get gifts and chochkiz
Make bubby kvell
Go get some gelt

LET’S DANCE THE HORA
LIGHT THE MENORAH
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT…….
AND IN PLAIN SIGHT
G-D MADE ONE FLASK. LAST MIRACULOUSLY. ALL 8 NIGHTS…………

CHORUS
HAPPY CHANUKAH!!!!
CHANUKAH
HAP HAP HAP HAP HAPPY CHANUKAH
CHANUKAH
HAP HAP HAP HAP HAPPY CHANUKAH

EXTENDED CHORUS
HEY, SPIN THAT DRAIDLE
HAP HAP HAP HAP HAPPY CHANUKAH
HEY, SPIN THAT DRAIDLE
HAP HAP HAP HAP
EH EH EH EH EH EH

Final verse
Sufganiot
I should not have eaten ……….ten sufganiot
Jelly glazed cream custard filled sufganiot
Feel like an idiot
BIH VAK AH SHAH some Pepto Bismal, Oh sufganiot
You know what I’m sayin?’
