I've always been a fan of song parodies (good ones at least) ever since I encountered Walt Kelly and his Deck Us All With Boston Charlie in the Pogo comic strip. Mad Magazine provided more parody fuel to the fire. What else could I do but write some of my own? Here's my take on this Christmas classic:
It's beginning to look a lot like shopping.
In every store in town.
Spending money that you don't have
On gifts no one will like.
Cause it's Christmas - Oh what a delight!
It goes on for several more annoying Bah Humbug verses.
