paroles de chanson A Christmas Carol (Live in Concert) - Tom Lehrer
One
very
familiar
type
of
song
is
the
Christmas
carol.
Although
it
is
perhaps
a
bit
out
of
season
at
this
time.
However,
I'm
informed
by
my
disk
jockey
friends
– of
whom
I
have
none,
that
in
order
to
get
a
song
popular
by
Christmas
Time,
you
have
to
start
plugging
it
well
in
advance.
So
here
Goes.
It
has
always
seemed
to
me
after
all,
that
Christmas,
With
its
spirit
of
giving,
offers
us
all
a
wonderful
opportunity
Each
year
to
reflect
on
what
we
all
most
sincerely
and
deeply
Believe
in
– I
refer
of
course,
to
money.
And
yet
none
of
the
Christmas
carols
that
you
hear
on
the
radio
or
in
the
street,
Even
attempt
to
capture
the
true
spirit
of
Christmas
as
we
Celebrate
it
in
the
United
States,
that
is
to
say
the
commercial
Spirit.
So
I
should
like
to
offer
the
following
Christmas
carol
For
next
year,
as
being
perhaps
a
bit
more
appropriate.
Christmas
time
is
here,
by
golly
Disapproval
would
be
folly
Deck
the
halls
with
hunks
of
holly
Fill
the
cup
and
don't
say
when
Kill
the
turkeys,
ducks
and
chickens
Mix
the
punch,
drag
out
the
Dickens
Even
though
the
prospect
sickens
Brother,
here
we
go
again
On
Christmas
Day
you
can't
get
sore
Your
fellow
man
you
must
adore
There's
time
to
rob
him
all
the
more
The
other
three
hundred
and
sixty-four
Relations,
sparing
no
expense,
'll
Send
some
useless
old
utensil
Or
a
matching
pen
and
pencil
It
doesn't
matter
how
sincere
it
is
Nor
how
heart
felt
the
spirit
Sentiment
will
not
endear
it
What's
important
is
the
price
Hark,
the
Herald
Tribune
sings
Advertising
wondrous
things
God
rest
ye
merry
merchants
May
ye
make
the
Yuletide
pay
Angels
we
have
heard
on
high
Tell
us
to
go
out
and
– buy!
So
let
the
raucous
sleighbells
jingle
Hail
our
dear
old
friend
Kriss
Kringle
Driving
his
reindeer
across
the
sky
Don't
stand
underneath
when
they
fly
by
Actually
I
did
rather
well
myself,
this
last
Christmas.
The
nicest
present
I
received
was
a
gift
certificate
"Good
at
any
hospital
for
a
lobotomy"...
rather
thoughtful.
