Revived for this Christmas....enough with the holly jolly Christmas-don't listen to the Cat Carol song unless you're prepared to shed a tear or two

Alleluia noel, be it heaven or hell, the Christmas we get we deserve.

1. "Happily Addicted To The Web"

(Sung to the tune of "Walking in a Winter Wonderland&quot


Doorbell rings, I'm not lis'nin'
From my mouth, drool is glist'nin'
I'm happy - although
My boss let me go -
Happily addicted to the web

All night long, I sit clicking
Unaware time is ticking
There's a beard on my cheek
Same clothes for a week
Happily addicted to the web

Friends come by, they shake me, saying "Yo, man!
Don't you know tonights the senior prom?"
With a listless shrug I mutter, "No, man!
I just discovered Impeach Trump.com"

I don't phone, don't send faxes
Don't go out, don't pay taxes
Who cares if someday
They drag me away?
Happily addicted to the web

2. Christmas at Ground Zero

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

9. That's just wrong.

Does Weird Al have no sense of decency?

[nolabear]

4. A couple of favorites:

The Civil Wars' song isn't strictly Christmas but it certainly fills the bill and mood.

[IcyPeas]

5. The Cat Carol....

Oh geez. Don't listen to this unless you want to get depressed and cry your eyes out.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. Yeah, that was so sad - a real tear-jerker...

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

8. I know.

I should have posted that song with a warning. I could listen to that song in July and it brings tears to my eyes. And I'm not exactly a sentimental person. That song is kryptonite.

11. Just thinking about it is making me cry.

[GoneOffShore]

7. The Kinks - Punk before punk

Really great band.

[Laxman]

10. I Remember Hearing That Simon & Garfunkle....

version of Silent Night for the first time when I was about 10 years old. Lying in bed Christmas Eve, a mysterious FM station. I think it was WFMU and Vin Scelsa. That was before anybody made Christmas songs with depressing messages. I always liked Circle of Steel and the ELP song is a classic. What's with the cat song? That might be one of the saddest songs I have ever heard.
