Chanukah (Shake It Off) Songtext
von Six13

I′m feeling pretty great (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Got latkes on my plate (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
I love this holiday (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
I love this holiday (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)

And Kislev is the date (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Light candles one through eight (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Add a new one every day (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
I love this holiday (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba) hmm

I'm spinning Dreidels (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Onions and potatoes (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Coming to my table (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Smells so good, singing (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
It′s gonna be eight nights (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)

Cause we're counting up to eight, eight, eight, eight, eight (ba, ba, ba)
We escaped an awful fate, fate, fate, fate, fate (ba, ba, ba)
We're gonna celebrate, brate, brate, brate, brate (ba, ba, ba)
It′s Chanukah, Chanukah (oh, oh, oh)


Light the candles every night, night, night, night, night
And the blessings we′ll recite, -cite, -cite, -cite, -cite
For the festival of light, light, light, light, light
It's Chanukah, Chanukah

Back in 160 B.C.E (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Lived Judah Maccabee (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
His army was so weak (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba) hmm
But they still beat the greeks (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)

Supply of oil wasn′t great (oil wasn't great) ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
But a miracle took place (miracle took place) ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
It burned for eight whole days (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba) hmm
It burned for eight whole days (Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Hmm

So in December (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Take time to remember (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
With four Hebrew letters
Spinning round singing
It′s gonna be eight nights

Cause we're counting up to eight, eight, eight, eight, eight (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
And these Latkes taste so great, great, great, great, great (ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba)
Yeah, that′s how we celebrate, brate, brate, brate, brate
It's Chanukah, Chanukah (oh, oh, oh)


Made a Dreidel out of clay, clay, clay, clay, clay
When it's ready I will play, play, play, play, play
Got a Gimmel not a hay, hay, hay, hay, hay
Mazal tov, mazal tov

Gonna go, gonna go uh-uh-uh
It′s gonna go, gonna go uh-uh-uh
Gonna go, gonna go uh-uh-uh
Gonna go, gonna go whoo-whoo

Hay, hay, hay
Just remember
If life′s been getting you down
You should be thinking about the miracle of light
And the story of the
Mac-
-Ca-
-Bees

Spin a nun and you don't get none
And you put one in if you′re landing on a shin
If you wind up with a hay, you get half the total pay
But if you spin a little gimmel then you take, take, take

Yeah
Cause we're counting up to eight, eight, eight, eight, eight
We escaped an awful fate, fate, fate, fate, fate
It′s how celebrate, brate, brate, brate, brate
It's Chanukah, Chanukah (oh, oh, oh)

The candles gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
And the dreidels gonna turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
It′s a mystery you learn, learn, learn, learn, learn
Chanukah, Chanukah (oh, oh, oh)

Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Oh Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
Chanukah, Chanukah ah-ah (oh, oh, oh)
