Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah is a traditional Yiddish Chanukah song that is featured in Glee, Actually, the tenth episode of Season Four. It is sung by Jake and Puck. They sing the Barenaked Ladies arrangement of the song.
They arrive at Paramount Pictures Studios. Puck grabs guitars as Jake questions his actions. Once again, Puck says he's "conjuring the Network." Together they run through a cafe shop, singing, before being sent away by the shop owner. As they ride through the studio in a golf cart, they continue to reel people in with the song. They even interrupt a film shooting to sing, with everyone joining in. They ride the cart to a large Christmas tree filled with presents, singing together.
At the end of the song, Jake and Puck are seen in a tattoo shop, getting a Jewish star on their left shoulder. Puck happily yells, "Happy Hanukkah!"
Lyrics
Jake:
Oh Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
Come light the menorah
Let's have a party
We'll all dance the hora
Gather 'round the table, we'll give you a treat
Sevivonim to play with and latkes to eat
And while we are playing
The candles are burning low
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
Jake and Puck:
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
Oh Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
Come light the menorah
Let's have a party
We'll all dance the hora
Gather 'round the table, we'll give you a treat
Sevivonim to play with and latkes to eat
And while we are playing
The candles are burning low
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
Oh Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah
Come light the menorah
Let's have a party
We'll all dance the hora
Gather 'round the table, we'll give you a treat
Sevivonim to play with and latkes to eat
And while we are playing
The candles are burning low
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
One for each night, they shed a sweet light
To remind us of days long ago
