The Little Drum Machine Boy Lyrics

(distorted repeated background theme: "barukh atah adonai eloheinu melekh
ha-olam")

(spoken)
That’s the holiday...
That’s the hanukkah robot funk
(ba-rum-pa-pum-pum uh.)
Right about now...
Gonna drop some hanukkah science
Yeah, hmm, uh--this is it...

I press a button make the gentleman cry
I rock a beat to make the hamburger fry
I funk this joint and check out holiday gear
The system booming strictly pioneer
Under the rear
Bringing a tear
I turn it out in a holiday mode
Safe like a seatbelt in a volvo
Keeping it real like a spray-snow tree
We’ll shut it down harmoniously
Rockin’ softly
808 beats

(rap) I get this sh*t lit like a menorah
Funk so illegal I think I might need a lawyer
Not a firestarter but my beats get hotter
Even amount like an allowance (? ? )
Footwear riot (? ? ) new balance
Hanukkah pimp on a check
Like a micro rock(? ? ) gettin’ in a sweat (? ? )
Neal’s mackin’ track
Ejaculatin’ on buffet tables and record labels
Willin’ and able
Bring my funk in place of each beat (? ? ? )
Lifestyles of the slick and sleazy
Spin around and around like a dreidel
Kind of science that puts you back in the cradle
Shit, sometimes this track’s so poignant
Somebody please pass me some kind of ointment
Put these rhymes together like a thief
Clear up your nose like a eucalyptus leaf
Dropping science, you don’t even know what hits you
Next thing you know you’re 13 and get a bar mitzvah


(background: "his eminence is gay.")

I get down, I get down, I get down all the way
Yeah yeah yeah yeah ooohhhhhh
I get down, I get down, I get down all the way, etc.

Hanukkah pimp [x20]
Pimpin’!!!!

(assorted noises, "menorah, menorah, menorah.......and my book (? ?
