Ok, Xmas carols have always been fair game for parodies, and some seem to have been around forever (such as "While sheperds washed their socks by night"), but what about the parodies Mudcatters have composed and done for friends and their own performances? Come on, It's time these gems were shared, and got into circulation on the folk process merry-go-round. Post them here, and let's all have a chuckle ;-) Here's two I prepared before the show ;-) [to the tune of God Rest Ye merry Gentlemen] SOD OFF YE ROWDY GENTLEMEN (an anti carol singers ditty) Sod off ye rowdy gentlemen, your carols are a pain. How dare ye wake me from my rest in hope of fiscal gain. Your tenor's flat, you sing off key, now GO! Do not remain, or face Good Hidings, discomfort, and Pain. (Discomfort and Pain) Face Good Hidings, Discomfort, and Pain. [To the tune of Deck The Halls] CHECK THE MALLS (This one always got a laugh in Northern Ireland) Check the Malls for Bombs in trolleys, Tra la la la la, lala, la la. Tis the season to be wary Tra la la la la, lala, la la. Don we now our kevlar armour Tra la la la la, Tra la la la la, lala, la. Send in the robot to disarm 'er Tra la la la la, lala, la la. OK, Your turn ;-) Wrinkles
