Christmas 2014 lyrics

[dbminter]

I sometimes have this annual tradition of copying and pasting cynical lyrics about the holidays around Christmas time.  I'm running out of things to quote!    I think I've only got one other candidate after this one.

 

 

This year is the great Christmas At Ground Zero by Weird Al Yankovic.

 

 

It's Christmas at ground zero
There's music in the air
The sleigh bells are ringin' and the carolers are singin'
While the air raid sirens blare

 

It's Christmas at ground zero
The button has been pressed
The radio just let us know
That this is not a test

 

Everywhere the atom bombs are droppin'
It's the end of all humanity
No more time for last minute shoppin'
It's time to face your final destiny

 

Well, it's Christmas at ground zero
There's panic in the crowd
We can dodge debris while we trim the tree
Underneath a mushroom cloud

 

[Air raid siren]

 

You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop
Or Jack Frost on your windowsill
But if someone's climbin' down your chimney
You better load your gun and shoot to kill

 

Oh, it's Christmas at ground zero
And if the radiation level's okay
I'll go out with you and see the all new
Mutations on New Year's Day

 

It's Christmas at ground zero
Just seconds left to go
I'll duck and cover with my yuletide lover
Underneath the mistletoe

 

It's Christmas at ground zero
Now the missiles are on their way
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
On this jolly holiday
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
On this jolly holiday

 

[Air raid siren]
