Add: Mistletoe and Holly Frank Sinatra Oh, by gosh, by golly It's time for mistletoe and holly Tasty pheasants, Christmas presents Countryside covered with snow. Oh, by gosh, by jingle It's time for carols and Kris Kringle Overeating, merry greetings From relatives you don't know. Then comes that big night Giving the tree the trim You'll hear voices by starlight Singing a Yuletide hymn. Oh, by gosh, by golly It's time for mistletoe and holly Fancy ties and Grannie's pies An' folks stealin' a kiss or two. As they whisper "Merry Christmas" to you. Then comes that big night Giving the tree the trim You'll hear voices by starlight Singing a Yuletide hymn. Oh, by gosh, by golly It's time for mistletoe and holly Fancy ties and grannie's pies An' folks stealin' a kiss or two.

I think I know the answer. I share the feeling. It's just hard to define, or describe, or admit to. Our language needs a word something like schadenfreude that means "Malicious enjoyment derived from observing someone else's bad taste." I find that, no matter how bad a song is, I can usually enjoy hearing it once. |

Many's the time I've posted lyrics of songs I liked, or at least thought were interesting, not in response to a request, but just like you did, because I happened to run across them while looking for something else. When I saw you doing the same thing, I thought I recognized a kindred spirit. |
