I'm just a Jew boy on Christmas Eve
There's nothing to do but sit and watch the TV
I'll catch a movie or get some Chinese Food
I wish you were with me I don't mean to be rude
If there was one thing I'd choose
I wish there was Christmas for the Jews

Don't get me started on Hanukkah
It ain't know Christmas that's why they're eight days of
Spinning dradles really ain't much fun
You can't stuff the stockings up with [?]
If there was one thing I'd choose
It's Christmas for the Jews

The Maccabes were freedom fighters
For that I give them lots of [?]
But you can't party with a Menorah
For that I'm sure of
Wish there was Christmas for the Jews
Christmas for the Jews

Then one evening
When I was all alone
They were all illuminated with beauty and light
Saw so many blessings, brought tears to my eyes
Thought of where my people've been
Wish there was Hanukkah for the Christians
Hanukkah for the Christians
Kwanza for the Hindus
Christmas for the Jews
Christmas for the Jews
