Words & Music by Lindsey Miller – Chain Smoke Music – ASCAP

Ohh I love to be a Jew on Christmas
Yeah Christmas is my favorite time of year
Yes it’s great to be a Jew on Christmas
Cause I’m a chosen one with cheer

Ohh I love to hear Barbara jingle bell jingle rock
And I love to watch you people stick your gifts in dirty socks
And I love to watch the fires caused by Christmas lights
And the families all ruined from the Christmas fights

Ohh I love to be a Jew on Christmas
Yeah Christmas is my favorite time of year
Yes it’s great to be a Jew on Christmas
Cause I’m a chosen one with cheer

And I love how all you people like to buy me menorahs
Although I could give a shit straight through Passover
And I love to tell the story of great Chanukah
And the faces when they find out that it’s all made up

Ohh I love to be a Jew on Christmas
Yeah Christmas is my favorite time of year
Yes it’s great to be a Jew on Christmas
Cause I’m a chosen one with cheer

Oh I love to hear complaints about presents to be wrapped
And I love to tell the kids that Santa’s all a bunch of crap
And I love to tell the people I don’t celebrate Christmas
And I love to hear the question; “wait you don’t believe in Jesus?”

Ohh I love to be a Jew on Christmas
Yeah Christmas is my favorite time of year
Yes it’s great to be a Jew on Christmas
Cause I’m a chosen one with cheer

Well they tell me they survived black Friday at the Walmart
Then I tell them that my grandma survived the Holocaust
When they say Merry Christmas to you and yours
I simply say “Oy Vey” of course

Ohh I love to be a Jew on Christmas
Yeah Christmas is my favorite time of year
Yes it’s great to be a Jew on Christmas
Cause I’m a chosen one with cheer
