Well,
I flew to
L .A. for the very first time and met
Howie
Klein and
Seymour
Stein.
They said, where's...
We do this
Christmas thing and we got
all the acts to sing.
I said, what do you want?
Do want to cover a winter wonderland
or something?
They said, do what you like.
So this is called
Talking
Christmas
Goodwill
Blues.
Is this how it goes?
Here it goes.
Well
Christmas comes but once a year
364 days to get your arse in gear
And he's a sucker, he's a fool
The man who don't revere the yule
So this
Christmas it's just me and you
And a large helping of sweet baby
Jisoo.
May all your
Christmases be very white and your box
ing days be out of sight, but spare
a thought when you give the
gifts for the people doing
Christmas shifts.
Cos
Christmas is a time for giving,
like lifetime is a time for living.
Well, they say that money's taken over and no
one wants a cheap leg over, pull over.
They say that when any bell rings,
one of
God's children gets his wings.
Talking of wings, there's a sign in
LAX that says,
495 shopping days until the
Christmas
after this one.
Buy now, cry later.
So deck your halls with mistletoe and save your
cents and hope it snows and watch some
old films on
TV, but don't knock down the
Christmas tree.
Because you'll be cleaning up
pine needles in
July.
That's a universal truth, unfortunately.
Christmas hootenanny.
Twelve drummers drumming,
eleven pipers piping, ten lords
a -leaping, nine ladies dancing,
eight maids a -moving, seven
swans a -swimming, six geese a -laying,
five gold rings,
four calling birds, three
French hens, two turtle doves.
An d her apartment's in a big mess.
An d the
ASPCA's not too happy either.
So I'm behind the speakers over here
wishing you a hip -hop
Happy
New
Year,
a wicked
Christmas and the coolest yule,
if you're by a fire or in a swimming pool.
John
Wesley
Harding's the name and this is the
groove.
He was never known
to make foolish moves.
Watch out for the record when
it hits the shelves.
Happy
Christmas, enjoy your elves!
That's all folks!
