Song Notes: Hey, look! It's a Hanukkah song! It's sort of the other side of the coin to "We Just Go Nuts At Christmas Time" -- TMBG are really good at doing a lot of Christmas Songs about horrible holidays, and I guess for this one they decided not to leave out the Jews. So now they've got their own Horrible Holiday song. Only the song is actually really good, but you know, whatever. Like "We Just Go Nuts At Christmas Time", it's about a holiday with a divorced couple. Or perhaps it's about a estranged family, like a parent and child. Either way, though, it's just a little bit depressing. Just like the real holidays! - Rev. Syung Myung Me
