Lyrics:

Because you know we're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis

Yeah its pretty clear the Maccabees were few
They wouldn't take it take it
Being told what to do
They wanted freedoms that we today embrace
All the rights to pray in all the right places

The ancient magazines, they put the Greeks on top
Oppressed the Jewish state - they had to be stopped
But Maccabees had faith - they wouldn't give it up
Our holiday is so much more than spinning plastic tops

My mamma she told me it's not bout the foods you fry
Faith, family, freedom we celebrate for eight nights
You know that latkes and dreidels and presents are all good fun
But if that's all you do then your holiday's just begun

Because you know we're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis


We took the Temple back!
One day of oil burned much more than that
And now we celebrate by eating fat
But we're here to tell you that
Our holiday is so much more than spinning plastic tops

My bubbe she told me it's not bout the foods you fry
Faith, family, freedom we celebrate for eight nights
You know that latkes and dreidels and presents are all good fun
But if that's all you do then your holiday's just begun

Because you know we're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis no oil
We're all about that neis bout that neis
