9. Oh gods that one always depresses me |

I know it's hip to say it's the best Christmas song, but I can't bear to listen to it. :(

Gods rest ye, Unitarians, let nothing you dismay; Remember there's no evidence there was a Christmas Day; When Christ was born is just not known, no matter what they say, O, Tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact, Glad tidings of reason and fact.
Our current Christmas Customs come from Persia and from Greece, From solstice celebrations of the ancient Middle East. This whole darn Christmas spiel is just another pagan feast, O, Tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact, Glad tidings of reason and fact.
There was no star of Bethlehem, there was no angels' song; There couldn't have been wise men for the trip would take too long. The stories in the Bible are historically wrong, O, Tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact, Glad tidings of reason and fact!

14. Coming Out for Christmas -- sing to the tune of "Hark! . . . |
|
"Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" Sing along!
I intend to drop a bomb on my dear old dad and mom for this year, without a doubt, is the Christmas I come out first I'll get their full attention then slip in a subtle mention: "Tasty turkey. Perfect peas. Would someone pass (I'm gay) the cheese?" That should do the job okay when I come out on Christmas day
O say, can you see it now watch my parents have a cow or perhaps if fate is kind they'll insist that they don't mind then they'll say "we've always guessed -- after all, look how you're dressed. Seven earrings in one ear? We're not quite that dense, my dear." They'll adore me anyway when I come out on Christmas day
Coming out to everyone makes the winter doldrums fun it's a noble thing to do why don't you come on out too? make the choice - damn consequence! lift your voice - get off the fence! shout it from the highest roof gay is great, and you're the proof make the season bright and gay come on out on Christmas day
It loses plenty because you can't hear the arrangement. It was a blast to perform.

21. Sandler's "Hanukkah Song, Part II" |
|
Put on your Yamaka Its time for Chanukah So much funnaka To celebrate Chanukah Chanukah is the festival of lights Instead of one day of presents We get eight crazy nights When you feel like the only kid in town Without a Christmas tree Here's a new list of people who are Jewish Just like you and me Winona Ryder, Drinks Manischewitz wine Then spins a Dreidle with Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein Guess who gives and receives Loads of Chanukah toys The girls from Veruca Salt and all three Beastie Boys Lenny Kravitz is half Jewish, Courtney Love is half too Put them together What a funky bad ass Jew We got Harvey Keitel And flash dancer Jennifer Beals Yasmine Bleeth from Baywatch is Jewish And yes her boobs are real Put on that yarmulka Its time for Chanukah 2 time Ocsar winning Dustin Hoffmanaka celebrates Chanukah O.J. Simpson Still not a Jew But guess who is, The guy who does the voice for Scooby Doo Bob Dylan was born a Jew Then he wasn't but now he's back, Mary Tyler Moore's husband is Jewish 'Cause we're pretty good in the sack. Guess who got bar-mitzvahed On the PGA tour No I'm not talking about Tiger Woods I'm talkin' about Mr. Happy Gilmore. So many Jews are in the show biz Bruce Springsteen isn't Jewish But my mother thinks he is. Tell the world-amanaka It's time to celebrate Chanukah It's not pronounced Ch-nakah The C is silent in Chanukah So read your hooked on phonica Get drunk in Tijuanaka If you really really wannaka Have a happy happy happy happy Chanukah!
