(I’m Spending) Hanukkah in Santa Monica

[Verse 1]
I'm spending Hanukkah in Santa Monica
Wearing sandals, lighting candles by the sea
I spent Shavuos in East St. Louis
A charming spot, but clearly not the spot for me
Those eastern winters, I can't endure 'em
So every year I pack my gear and come out here to Purim
Rosh Hashana, I spend in Arizona
And Yom Kippur, way down in Mississippa
But in December, there's just one place for me

[Tag 1]
Amid the California flora, I'll be lighting my menorah
Like a baby in his cradle, I'll be playing with a dreidl
Spending Hanukkah in Santa Monica by the sea!

Here's to Judus Maccabeus - boy, if he could only see us
