Holiday Song Killer
Be-oo-tiful day here! We got a couple of inches of new snow overnight, so we awoke to freshly flocked trees. A few clouds clung to the mountains to make the long slow sunrise pink and interesting, but the rest of the sky was clear. Very Christmas-y.
We’re going to juxtapose this cheery goody-two-shoes scenery with a touch of humorous grinchiness.
A couple of years ago, while listening to a familiar holiday song, Mike imagined he heard the artist sing two words differently. He generously shared what he imagined, and ever since, I cannot get these imagined words out of my head. He totally ruined the song for me!
Since it is the season to give, I thought I’d share these new lyrics with you and ruin the song for you, too. Read on at your own risk.
The song is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
The correct lyrics are: Here we are as in olden days, happy golden days of yore…
Replace “of yore” with “up yours.”
Happy Holidays!

I am glad that I am not the only person who thought of changing the words like that! It just makes it much more fun when you hear the same Christmas songs over and over again and you need a change!

The other thing that I like to do is change the words to the first part of “The Christmas Song”. “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. Jack Frost nipping at your nose” is the correct line however I like to reverse it and say: “Jack Frost roasting on an open fire..Chestnuts nipping at your nose” However, I unfortunately have got nothing after that.

I bet if we tried we could re-write the whole song!
