Letra
Oh, Chanukah, oh, Chanukah Oh, Dreidel and Menorah We celebrate it even though It isn't in the Torah Talmud barely mentions it The way they kept their candle lit Sages in their colloquies Say bupkes ’bout the Maccabees And how with very little fuss They routed King Antiochus Antiochus! Pooh! Who cares what all the sages say? We celebrate it anyway Chanukah, oh, Chanukah From Astrakhan to Panama All along that isthmus We're celebrating Chanukah Especially in America! A whole week more than Christmas! You may think it's December But, Noah, dear, remember Tonight is Kislev Twenty-Five And every single Jew alive Oy Noahleh Oy bubaleh Oy vontzeleh Oy pishkeleh Sings happy, happy Chanukah Especially in America! America America God shed His grace on thee Where every Jew’s a Maccabee And crown'd thy good with brotherhood And bade our blessings multiply Boruch ata adonai eloheinu melech ha'olam Asher kidshanu b'mitzvotav vitzivanoo L'hadlich ner shel Chanukah Mi kamocha ba-eilim Adonai Mi kamocha ne-e-dar ba-ko-desh No-ra t'hilot o-se fe-le No-ra t'hilot o-se fe-le Omayn Give that liver salad a toss And watch the goose Don't let it dry Spoon them jars of applesauce And put them pancakes in the fry If you don’t fry ’em right away They start turning grey Know why they're fried in chicken fat? To crisp ’em up Noah, scat! You's bothering us, you's underfoot To symbolize the Temple Oil Dot, don't let the gravy boil Noah, scoot, I got no use for you tonight How about the goose? Does that mean something? That’s just food Noah, out! It's very rude To bother people when they're busy You aren't needed in here Is he? No, he ain't Go on, don't pout Go on, out, and see our friends He never listens! The South is in a mighty frenzy Time to bring the latkes out! Noah, tell them food is coming Wait and see! The old world's ending! Negroes marching! Change is coming! Down with the filthy capitalist chazzerim! Come and visit with Grandpa Stopnick All the way from New York City Just like we predicted back in the 30s All the Negroes got to do now Is stop this nonsense about nonviolence Scary, scary Such a tzimmes Negroes in Louisiana Aren't like in Mississippi Not as mad as Alabama Anyway, is this the way To talk on Erev Chanukah? Let's not dwell on ugly things Let's thank God for the joys He brings Watch the colored candles melt Spin the dreidel for Chanukah Gelt Let's be merry, let's be funny Noah, look! It's chocolate money! Let's wish our Negro neighbors well And may Bull Connor roast in hell Bull Connor! Pooh! But tonight, let's just forget Stuart, play your clarinet
