CAN'T WAIT FOR TONIGHT
THE FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS
EVERY YEAR WE  HAVE A REAL GOOD TIME
BEFORE THE SUN GOES DOWN
AS FAMILY GATHERS ROUND
THERE'S SOME THINGS THAT I HAVE ON MY MIND . . .

IS IT HANNUKAH OR CHANUKAH
I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW
WON'T YOU PLEASE MAKE UP YOUR MIND
WHICH WAY DOES IT GO
IS IT LATKAS IS IT LATKES
IS IT TCHOTCHAS IS IT TCHOTCHES
LIGHT THE CANDLES MAKE IT SNAPPY
CAUSE EIGHT PRESENTS MAKES ME CHAPPY

MOM SAYS IT LIKE THIS
DAD SAYS IT LIKE THAT
WHAT'S A KID LIKE ME SUPPOSED TO DO
EACH ONE THINKS THEY’RE RIGHT
ITS A FREINDLY FAMILY FIGHT
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS IN A ROOM THAT'S FULL OF JEWS

IS IT HANNUKAH OR CHANUKAH
I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW
WON'T YOU PLEASE MAKE UP YOUR MIND
WHICH WAY DOES IT GO
IS IT LATKAS IS IT LATKES
IS IT TCHOTCHAS IS IT TCHOTCHES
LIGHT THE CANDLES MAKE IT SNAPPY
CAUSE 8 PRESENTS MAKES ME CHAPPY

TEAR OPEN THE GIFT WRAPPY
CAUSE 8 PRESENTS MAKE ME CHAPPY!
