Dreidels of Fire

Lyrics

Judah and the Maccabees reclaimed the second temple They lit the menorah using all the oil they had Now get this: There was only enough oil for one night But the menorah burned for eight nights How the fuck do you explain that shit? How the fuck do you explain that shit? It was the greatest miracle of all time I know there was a talking, burning bush God parted the Red Sea But one night's worth of oil burnt for eight nights straight How the fuck do you explain that shit? How the fuck do you explain that shit? How the fuck do you explain that shit? Dreidels of fire Spun a dreidel with my love She took half, she gave me none I bet she really cares about Hanukkah Yeah, dreidels of fire I'm not a rich man but I got some gelt I'm feeling handsome like Judah felt But Hanukkah hurt me when she gimmeled me, again Dreidels of fire, yeah She turned my festival of lights Into a festival of pain If you need me I'll be spinning my dreidel In a corkscrew motion in a dark expanse Dreidels of fire, yeah
