Neil Diamond - The Chanukah Song

Put on your yarmulke it's time for Chanukah
So much funnaka to celebrate Chanukah

Chanukah is the festival of lights
Instead of one day of presents
We get eight crazy nights

When you feel like the only kid in town
Without a Christmas tree
Here's a new list of people who are Jewish
Just like you and me

Winona Ryder drinks Manischewitz wine
Then spins a draydle with Ralph
Lauren and Calvin Klein

Guess who gives and receives
Loads of Chanukah toys
The girls from Veruca Salt and
All three Beastie Boys

Lenny Kravitz is half Jewish
Courtney Love is half too put them together
What a funky bad ass Jew

We got Harvey Keitel
And flash dancer Jennifer Beals
Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch is Jewish
And yes her boobs are real

Put on your yarmulka it's time for Chanukah
2 time Ocsar winning Dustin Hoffmanaka
Celebrates Chanukah

OJ simpson still not a Jew but guess who is
The guy who does the voice for Scooby Doo

Bob Dylan was born a Jew then he wasn't
But now he's back
Mary Tyler Moore's husband is Jewish
'Cause we're pretty good in the sack

Guess who got bar-mitzvahed on the PGA tour
No I'm not talking about Tiger Woods
I'm talkin' about Mr happy Gilmore

So many Jews are in the show biz
Bruce Springsteen isn't Jewish
But my mother thinks he is

Tell the world-amanaka
It's time to celebrate Chanukah
It's not pronounced Ch nakah
The C is silent in Chanukah
So read your hooked on phonica
Get drunk in Tijuanaka
If you really really wannaka
Have a happy happy happy happy Chanukah!
