Sweet smells of fancy cocoa
 Drives me and my friends loco
 Thoughts in my head of gingerbread 
I’m drinking with some elves 

When you’re dazzled by the lights
 On a not so silent night
 You see ‘em around the north side of town 
I’m drinking with some elves

 Drinking with some Elves 
Drinking with some Elves 
They sip their eggnog neat from a booster seat 
I’m drinking with some Elves 

Making toys for all over the world
For good boys, nbs, and girls Santa gets the cred so they party instead
 Find me drinking with some elves

 So let’s take another nip
 From this flask that’s at my hip
 They build stuff for you they deserve a brew 
I’ll be drinking with some elves

 Drinking with some Elves
 Drinking with some Elves
 They’re doing Yeager shots then building toys for tots 
I’m drinking with some Elves Making Toys all for all over the world For good boys, NBs and girls Leave the cookies for Claus cus we’re gonna get sauced See I’m drinking with some Elves So let’s cheer to another yule 
Then pour back a Moscow mule 
They’re wearing curly shoes, pouring down the booze
 I’m drinking with some elves Drinking with some Elves
 Drinking with some Elves
 Have a mai tai or three under the Christmas tree
 I’m drinking with some Elves

Fröštïë the Snowman was a ice wraith with no soul 
With a gaping maw and carrot nose 
And two eyes as black as coal 

Fröštïë the Snowman, is what all men must fear
 A boneless beast born to only feast and the children called him here
 
There must have been some horror in the top hat that they found
 For when it took on it’s true form hell froze up through the ground Oh 

Fröštïë the Snowman in defiance of God’s will
 And the children say he could laugh and play
 and no mortal man can kill Crunchety Crunch Crunch (x2) Arterial spray on snow
 “Crunchety Crunch Crunch” (x2) The last sounds that you’ll know

 

Fröštïë the Snowman filled each winter night with dread 
As hours grows long, children sang his song 
and forsook their prayers instead. 

Down in the village they lit fire to all they saw
 In a blinding roar, burning every door 
and proclaimed it martial law

 He lead the children to the place the sacred fire was lit
 A holy man condemned them, and off his head was bit

 Chompety Chomp Chomp (x2) Look at Frosty eat 
Chompety Chomp Chomp (x2) A snowman full of meat 

Fröštïë the Snowman had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye, and let out a cry that still haunts me to this day.

1 I ate three sheets of gingerbread At the display at the display
 I ate three sheets of gingerbread
 at the display at the Costco
 2 And what else did I snack upon
 At the display at the display
 And what else did I snack upon
 At the display at the Costco 
3 Two dozen samples of eclairs
 At the display at the display
 Two dozen samples of eclairs
 At the display at the Costco 
4 Then cheese and crackers I did eat
 At the display at the display Then cheese and crackers I did eat At the display at the Costco 
5 The sad teen working glared in rage
 At the display at the display The sad teen working glared in rage At the display at the Costco
 6 An older lady swore at me At the display at the display An older lady swore at me At the display at the Costco 
7 The ma nagement asked me to leave
 At the display at the display
 The management asked me to leave At the display at the Costco 8 I stuffed my mouth and ran away From the display from the display I stuffed my mouth and ran away From the display at the Costco 9 Next week I’ll do it all again At the display at the display Their turnover is very high At the displays at the Costco

How’d ya like to watch red crabs cross Christmas Island
 How’d ya like to catch a sight of them emerging from the sea? How’d ya like to watch red crabs cross Christmas Island? How’d ya like to see a coconut crab in a coconut tree? Check out those the crustaceans as they migrate along
 Hear their claws as they scratch, scuttle and pinch As they sing out their song? They number in the millions on Christmas Island They can live on land or water but this island is where they belong We number in the millions on Christmas Island We can live on land or water but this island is where we belong How’d ya like to watch a coconut crab
 crush a bone like a twig
 They can weigh up to nine pounds, and eat a whole pig If you ever watch crabs spawn on Christmas Island
 You will never stay there anymore
 Because coconut crabs are big

about

Thank you to all my wonderful friends, new and old.

The holidays can be really weird for people, and there's a lot of really awful music, so I might as well put out some other stuff that's awful in a way that I enjoy. I hope you will too. I hope you share this album and that you all have a good laugh, and know that just because something is loud and silly doesn't mean it's not from the heart.

Be safe and kind!
