HANUKKAH IN SANTA MONICA (Tom Lehrer) I'm spending Hanukkah in Santa Monica Wearing sandals, lighting candles by the sea. I spent Shavuos in East Saint Louis, A charming spot, but clearly not the spot for me. Those eastern winters, I can't endure 'em, So every year I pack my gear and come out here till Purim. Rosh Hashanah, I spend in Arizona, And Yom Kippah way down in Mississippah, But in December, there's just one place for me: Amid the California flora, I'll be lighting my menorah. Like a baby in his cradle, I'll be playing with my dreidel, Spending Hanukkah in Santa Monica by the sea! (Repeat whole song, inserting the following lines after "playing with my dreidel:") Here's to Judas Maccabeus! Boy, if he could only see us! Sung by Tom Lehrer on "Remains of Tom Lehrer," 2000. @Jewish @holidays @humor filename[ HANNUCA CB ![]() 8note Sheet> |
