Steemit Openmic week 64 - A Christmas Parody (original lyrics)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

OpenMic Week 64!

I'm bringing a little Christmas Parody to the table this week... I'm not sure if it will qualify, because I already performed "Zombie" in a previous Openmic, but I am throwing it in for fun regardless! "A Christmas Parody/Zombie" I wrote these lyrics a couple years ago, with a sense of humor and a bit of truth ;) Hope you can all find it entertaining. And don't pay too much attention to my "percussion" section, I'm using the table and a children's book, lol. There's a reason I actually have a band when I play gigs and such.

I'm heading overseas to London soon, so I may not make it into Openmic next week.. if not, I will be back in the New Year :)

"Another complicated year is almost over.
Thru the hustle and the bustle, we made it to December.

It's the same every year, after Thanksgiving Day,
all the great Christmas deals, they're coming.
Then the songs start to play and you can't run away,
in your head, in your head, there to stay.

In your head, in your head,
you're singing Jingle Bells, Silent Night.
In your head, in your head,
It's Christmas, Christmas, Christmas time.

We've all got that one fine neighbor who never gets the memo.
and their decorations, they will stay up til the summer.
All the lights, all the trees, the inflatable things,
on the house, in the yard, I can't look away.
Light 'em up, show 'em off, up until New Years Day,
then it's time, take 'em down, put them away.

They're in my head, in my head,
Frosty, Rudolph, Santa Clause.
In my head, in my head,
It's Christmas, Christmas, Christmas time."

Happy Holidays everyone! xo
