The Chanukah Song (feat. Eric Anderson, Amber Iman & Ron Orbach)

Put on your yarmulke
Here comes Chanukah
So much fun-ukah
To celebrate Chanukah
Chanukah is the festival of lights
Instead of one day of presents
We have eight crazy nights
If you feel like the only kid in town
Without a Christmas tree
Here's some Broadway people who are Jewish
Just like you and me
Mandy Patinkin lights the menorah
While Joel Grey and Stephen Schwartz sit and read the Torah
Harvey Fierstein blows the shofar like a rascal
Hal Prince dances the hora with Adam Pascal
Idina Menzel drinks Manischewitz wine
Then spins the dreidel with Mel Brooks and Michael Feinstein
Marc Shaiman was spotted wearing a kippah
Eating matzah ball soup with Andrew Lippa
Woah, they really love that kosher soup, yeah
Kander and Ebb, Gershwin, Berlin, Rodgers and Hammerstein
Lerner and Loewe, Kurt Weill, Wildhorn, Leonard Bernstein, hey
Put on your yarmulke
It's time for Chanukah
The Bean that is Shoshana-kah celebrates Chanukah
The guy who plays Shlomo, not a Jew
But Bebe Neuwirth's Jewish
Matthew Broderick's half too
Guess who used to vacation in the borscht belt-shuh
Julie Taymor and Tovah Feldshuh
You know who sings shalom in a Chanukah wish
Danny Burstein, Judy Kaye, and Marc Kudisch
The composer of Newsies and the lyricist of Ragtime
Were seen in shul davening with Stephen Sondheim
So many Jews on the Great White Way
Even Harry Potter was [?] oy vey
Hey, tell your friend Veronica
It's time to celebrate Chanukah
[?] plays harmonica
On this lovely, lovely Chanukah
So go see Miss Saigon-ukah
Or maybe Legally Blonde-ukah
If you really, really wanna-kuh
Have a happy, happy, happy, happy Chanukah
