Grandma got run over by a reindeer.

Walking home from our house Christmas eve.

You can say there's no such thing as Santa,

but as for me and grandpa we believe.

She'd been drinking too much eggnog,

and we begged her not to go.

But she forgot her medication, and she

staggered out the door into the snow.

When we found her Christmas morning,

at the scene of the attack,

she had hoof-prints on her forehead,

and incriminating Claus marks on her back.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer.

Walking home from our house Christmas eve.

You can say there's no such thing as Santa,

but as for me and grandpa we believe.

Now we're all so proud of grandpa,

He's been taking this so well.

See him in there watching football,

drinking root beer and

playing cards with Cousin Mel.

It's not Christmas without Grandma,

All the family's dressed in black

and we just can't help but wonder:

Should we open up her gifts,

or send them back?

Send them back!!

Grandma got run over by a reindeer.

Walking home from our house Christmas eve.

You can say there's no such thing as Santa,

but as for me and grandpa we believe.

Now the goose is on the table

and the pudding made of fig

and the blue and silver candles

that would just have matched

the hair on grandma's wig.

I've warned all my

friends and neighbors

better watch out for yourselves,

they should never give a license

to a man who drives a sleigh

and plays with elves.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer.

Walking home from our house Christmas eve.

You can say there's no such thing as Santa,

but as for me and grandpa we believe.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy

I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?

He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue

Just bring him through the front door,

that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on Christmas morning,

creeping down the stairs

Oh what joy and what surprise

when I open up my eyes

to see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses

I only like hippopotamuses

And hippopotamuses like me too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then

Teacher says a hippo is a vegeterian

There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage

I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage

I can see me now on Christmas morning,

creeping down the stairs

Oh what joy and what surprise

when I open up my eyes

to see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses

I only like hippopotamuseses

And hippopotamuses like me too!

:guitarist you better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout, i'm telling you why....santa claus is dead.

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.

Long lay the world in sin and error pining.

Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!

O night divine, the night when Christ was born;

O night, O holy night, O night divine!

O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,

With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.

O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,

Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land.

The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;

In all our trials born to be our friends.

He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,

Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!

Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another,

His law is love and His gospel is peace.

Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.

And in his name all oppression shall cease.

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,

With all our hearts we praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,

His power and glory ever more proclaim!

His power and glory ever more proclaim!



O Holy Night

Christmas Carol Lyrics

Come they told me, pa rum pum pum pum

A new born King to see, pa rum pum pum pum

Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pum pum pum

To lay before the King, pa rum pum pum pum,

rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum,

So to honor Him, pa rum pum pum pum,

When we come.

Little Baby, pa rum pum pum pum

I am a poor boy too, pa rum pum pum pum

I have no gift to bring, pa rum pum pum pum

That's fit to give the King, pa rum pum pum pum,

rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum,

Shall I play for you, pa rum pum pum pum,

On my drum?

Mary nodded, pa rum pum pum pum

The ox and lamb kept time, pa rum pum pum pum

I played my drum for Him, pa rum pum pum pum

I played my best for Him, pa rum pum pum pum,

rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum,

Then He smiled at me, pa rum pum pum pum

Me and my drum.

I've always loved "Oh Little Town of Bethlehem" as it was the first carol I learned how to play

Christmas Carol Lyrics


That is one of my favorite ones, Nomad. Also, Mary Did You Know........................

Mary, did you know

That your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Did you know

That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?

Did you know

That your baby boy has come to make you new?

This child that you've delivered

Will soon deliver you

Mary, did you know

That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?

Did you know

That your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?

Did you know

That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?

And when you kiss your little boy

Youve kissed the face of God

Mary, did you know?

The blind will see

The deaf will hear

And the dead will live again

The lame will leap

The dumb will speak

The praises of the lamb

Mary, did you know

That your baby boy is Lord of all creation?

Did you know

That your baby boy will one day rules the nations?

Did you know

That your baby boy is heavens perfect lamb?

This sleeping child youre holding

Is the great I Am.

:wah:

silent night, holy night

all is calm, all is bright...

even my kids go still and shut up when they hear that one

Mary, did you know?

Mary, did you know

That your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Did you know

That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?

Did you know

That your baby boy has come to make you new?

This child that you've delivered

Will soon deliver you

Mary, did you know

That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?

Did you know

That your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?

Did you know

That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?

And when you kiss your little boy

You've kissed the face of god

Mary, did you know?

The blind will see

The deaf will hear

And the dead will live again

The lame will leap

The dumb will speak

I absolutely love "Carol of the Bells"! Its not a carol I've ever heard sung in England sadly. I first heard it years ago when the first "Home Alone" film came out and thought it was beautiful! It took me ages to find out what it was called. I have it on disc now but I really wish it was a carol we sang here rather than all the same old traditional carols, some of which are pretty dull.

No you dont.

It's Christmastime

There's no need to be afraid

At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade

And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime

But say a prayer

Pray for the other ones

At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window

And it's a world of dread and fear

Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging

chimes of doom

Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows

No rain nor rivers flow

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

(Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone

(Here's to them) underneath that burning sun

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

It is the night of the dear saviors birth!

Long lay the world in sin and error pining

Till he appeard and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on your knees

Oh hear the angel voices

Oh night divine

Oh night when christ was born

Oh night divine

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming

With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand

So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming

Here come the wise men from orient land

The king of kings lay thus in lowly manger

In all our trials born to be our friend.

Truly he taught us to love one another

His law is love and his gospel is peace

Chains shall he break for the slave is our brother

And in his name all oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,

Let all within us praise his holy name.

Your favorite Christmas carols





Im sorry pommy but you have deviated from the required guidelines. On your knees and hands behind your head. Left foot over right shoulder and touch your tongue to your elbow. Your goin downtown sista !

Yeah, what he said.

I love It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

IT CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR



It came upon the midnight clear,

That glorious song of old,

From angels bending near the earth

To touch their harps of gold!

"Peace on the earth, good will to men,

From heaven's all gracious King!

The world in solemn stillness lay

To hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come

With peaceful wings unfurled

And still their heavenly music floats

O'er all the weary world;

Above its sad and lowly plains

They bend on hovering wing.

And ever o'er its Babel sounds

The blessed angels sing.

Yet with te woes of sin and strife

The world hath suffered long;

Beneath the angel-strain have rolled

Two thousand years of wrong;

And man, at war with man, hears not

The love song which they bring:

O hush the noise, ye men of strife,R And hear the angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on,

By prophet bards foretold,

When, with the ever-circling years,

Shall come the Age of Gold;

When peace shall over all the earth

Its ancient splendors fling,

And all the world give back the song

Which now the angels sing.

Santa will be watching you

We three kings of Orient are,

One on a bicycle, one in a car,

One on a scooter, beeping his hooter,

following yonder star!

While shepherds washed their socks by night

All seated round the tub

The Angel of the Lord came down

And gave them a jolly good scrub

Do you think there's a difference between Christmas CAROLS and Christmas SONGS? I always think that the Carols are old and traditional and tell the story of Christmas. There are some old songs, too, like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. But when I think of Carols, I remember Silent Night, O Come, All Ye Faithful, O Little Town of Bethlehem...is it just me? And I, too, love Carol of the Bells.

I think there all fun to singalong to and I love to singalong! ho ho ho!

Shame the elfs dont like me singingalong to. :wah:

I don't care if they're carols or songs. I just think they're fun to sing. I like "I Saw Mommy Kissing SC" and "All I Want For Christmas" It's just fun to sing along with all of them. Even in the stores. Okay, sometimes they ask me to leave.
