Subject: ADD Parody: Deck Your Head (Green Bay Packers)
I probably should be ashamed to post this parody, but I found it at a defunct Website, rabidfans.com, and it could well be that if it were not for this post, this song might be lost. Come to think of it, maybe that would have been a blessing....

DECK YOUR HEAD
(Sung to "Deck The Halls")

Deck your head with cheeseheads yellow, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Then you'll be a merry fellow, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Don we now our green apparel, fa la la la la, la la la la!
And we'll sing some Packer carols, fa la la la la, la la la la!

Put some mittens on your hands, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Keep you warm up in the stands, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Lambeau Field is really cold, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Unless you cheer for the Green and Gold, fa la la la la, la la la la!

First we'll have a tailgate party, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Ten below, but we're real hardy, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Bratwurst topped with sauerkraut, fa la la la la, la la la la!
Schnapps will keep the frostbite out, fa la la la la, la la la la!


I left Wisconsin before they came up with this "cheesehead" garbage, but the rest of it sounds authentic. I wonder how they avoided getting in a verse about deer season, the most sacred season of the year in Wisconsin....
