DECEMBER 2019 -- Not Your Standard Christmas Carols


Rewriting  Christmas carols was so much fun that I thought I'd give it another whirl.




OH LITTLE CHILDREN
[Tune: Oh Little Town of Bethlehem]

Oh little children, dry your tears.

That weatherman is wrong.

Snow flurries, bah. Forget ice chills.

Let winter winds blow strong.

No storm can delay Christmas,

Those reindeer will take flight.

Your presents shall arrive on time . . .

Santa will come tonight.




AWAY TO THE TOY STORE
[Tune: Away In a Manger]

Away to the toy store, more presents to pick

For little dear children who won’t care a lick.

They’ll fight and they’ll quarrel, their new toys they’ll break,

While Mom and Dad settle for pounding headaches.
