Do You Hear What I Hear?

Ring my Cell Rock
(To" Jingle Bell Rock")


Ring my cell, ring my cell, ring my cell rock.
You're in the car and bored, so you talk.
Call me 'bout nothin 'cause minutes are free.
'Now I'm turnin' left, " you tell me.

Ring my cell, ring my cell, ring my cell rock.
Ring all time, I'm losing my mind.
Blather and chatter because you're my spouse,
Thought you just left the house!

What a nightmare, it sits right there
To pass the time away.
Turn your phone on and you drone on:
"I had a cheese Danish today, yay!"

Nonstop yap, there's my cell ringin' again,
Clackin' around the clock.
I hear the ringle and wish I were single.
That's the ring my cell,
Jingle ringle hell,
That's the ring my cell rock.


Let Us Go
(To"Let it Snow")

Oh. The weather outside is frightful,
But of course they crammed this flight full.
Just don't say these words, I pray:
"We're delayed, We're delayed, We're delayed.

The pilot is getting folksy,
Using words like "okesydokesy."
So much for my free upgrade:
We're delayed, We're delayed, We're delayed.

No one's certain when we'll push back,
Seems we're 18th or 19th to go.
I had hoped that they'd serve a snack-
Guess I'll just gnaw on my toe.

The pilot is getting loopy,
And his eyes are getting droopy.
For a camel ride I would trade
We're delayed, We're delayed, We're delayed,



The Postholiday Truth
(To "I'll be home for christmas")


I'll be slim for Christmas,
You can count on me.
I pass up chips and chunky dips
And ham and spam and Brie

Christmas night will find me
Where the fridge light gleams.
I'll be slim for Christmas,
But then come Krispy Kremes,
Yes, then come Krispy Kremes.



Taken for a Ride
(To the Tune of "Sleigh Ride")

Just hear that cashier jingling,
ring ting ting-a-ling, ooh!
That will be 16 dollars
For three bananas for you.

Come watch our dollar falling
While friends are brawling "Boohoo!"
Because it's 16 dollars
For five green olives for you.

Giddyup, giddyup, giddyup, they go,
Those prices we know.
They'er leapin' like those
heatin' bills we owe.

Going up, going up, going up, it's tons
For hot dogs and buns.
We're tryin', our credit's dyin',
Did somebody say "bank run"?

Our cheeks are red from sneezing
Since it is freezing in here.
We're bundled up in blankies
And craving hankies and beer.

Let's move into the Taurus
And sing a chorus or two
Because it's 16 dollars
For seven fish sticks for you.

Deck the Malls
(To"Deck the Halls")

Deck the malls with stuff from China,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!
Hats and Bratz and Dad's reclina,
Fa la la la la, la la la la!

Don we non-U.S. apparel,
Fa la la, deficit, blah blah blah!
Shrug "oh well" and watch Will Ferrell,
Fa la la la and la-di-da
