Lyrics Dreidels of Fire - Ben Lee

Dreidels of Fire

When Judah and the Maccabees reclaimed the second temple\nThey lit the menorah using all the oil they had\nNow get this: there was only enough oil for one night\nBut the menorah burned for eight nights straight\nHow the fuck do you explain that shit?\nHow the fuck do you explain that shit?\nIt was the greatest miracle of all time\nI mean I know there was a talking, burning bush\nAnd God parted the Red Sea\nWe talking about one night’s worth of oil burnt for eight nights straight\nHow the fuck do you explain that shit?\nHow the fuck do you explain that shit?\nHow the fuck do you explain that shit?\nDreidels of fire\nSpun a dreidel with my love\nShe took half, she gave me none\nI bet she really cares about Hanukkah\nYeah, dreidels of fire\nI’m not a rich man but I got some gelt\nI’m feeling handsome like Judah felt\nBut Hanukkah she hurt me when she gimmeled me, again\nDreidels of fire, yeah\nShe turned my festival of lights\nInto a festival of pain\nIf you need me\nI’ll be spinning my dreidel\nIn a corkscrew motion in a dark expanse\nDreidels of fire, yeah\nDreidels of fire\nDreidels of fire\nDreidels of fire, yeah
