My parents had a comedy album and one of the songs was about the 6-Day-War, but done as a Christmas/Hanukkah parody. It got the author in so much trouble I can't even find a reference to it anymore.  :-X The 8th day was a 'telephone con-hbomb" followed by 7 million dollars, 6 guided missiles, to hell de da de da"

It sounds like something Allen Sherman would have done, but the published lyrics for the 12 Gifts of Christmas don't match.

Does anyone remember who did this and the rest of the song?

Found it finally. It was the Chad Mitchell Trio "Singing Our Mind/Reflecting". The second day was Rudolph Hess' blessings, Day three was 3 anti semites. OY, no wonder it was unpopular.

Of course, you know who one of the members of the "Chad Mitchell Trio" was, son't you?

John Denver.

They were one of the many folk song groups of the era, mostly doing songs there were humerous, and sometimes political.  I much prefer their song "Super Skiier", which I listened to all the time growing up.

Maxwell should love the B side of that single, it was "Lizzie Bordon".

"Cause you can't chop your pappa up in Massachusetts,
Massachusetts is a far cry from New York!"

Soupy Sales had one.
