The Lyrics

Up on the rooftop big steel jaws
In the path of Santa Claus
Crouched near the chimney, our grandpa waits
He's got a hankerin'
Reindeer steaks!

Ho, ho, ho
He wouldn't go
Ho, ho, ho
He wouldn't go
Off to the rest home
Sick, sick, sick
Grandpa's a nut job
Warn St. Nick!

Loading and locking
His shotgun shells
Oh dear Lord, no
Not the elves!
Plotting and planning
A big surprise
Warming the oven
For Christmas pies

Ho ho ho
He wouldn't go!
Ho ho ho
He wouldn't go!
Off to the rest home
Sick, sick, sick!
Grandpa's a nut job
Warn St. Nick!

He rigged the cookies
And glass of milk
Over a net
He's hopin' to fill
Pit full of charcoal
Dug out back
Waits for the haul
From his Christmas sack

Ho, ho, ho
He wouldn't go
Ho, ho, ho
He wouldn't go
Off to the rest home
Sick, sick, sick
Grandpa's a nut job
Warn St. Nick

I think you should know the Jackson 5 did my favorite version of this, so I imagined little Michael singing when I read it. Appropriate I think. Anyway, great job as usual.

ABC G - I might have liked this more if I actually knew the OS (so far know one of the three I've looked at) but it's still a good idea and well written, as expected.
Melhi - June 18, 2005 - Report this comment
Aw, thanks Ethan, that's a very sweet compliment! :)
MysteryGoat - June 18, 2005 - Report this comment
(ABC) DKTOS but this was still great. I like the whole grandpa hannibal thing going on here. It has a sort of twisted aspect that I find humorous, is that wrong of me?

Thanks GoatMan, Arwen & Scathe! GoatMan: no more wrong than my thinking your Evil Candyman parodies is one of the funniest I've ever read, for pretty much the same reason! :)
