Little thing says:
This is a song, that uh, there's alot of Christmas songs out there, but not too
many about Hanukkah, so I wrote a song for all those nice little Jewish kids
who don't get to hear any Hanukkah songs. Here we go...

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 with out a Christmas tree,
Here's a list of people who are Jewish, just like you and me:

David Lee Roth lights the me norrah,
So do James Caan, Kirk Douglas, and the late Dinah Shore-ah
Guess who eats together at the Karnickey Deli,

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.
