For those of you who are not familiar with the tune, I recommend you follow the link below and listen to Bing Crosby sing it first and then enjoy my alternate lyrics.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Since November first (?!?)
Take a look in the hardware store...
Wal-Mart’s got even more.
With lawn decor and twinkle lights galore!
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Some would say, too soon.
But the craziest sight to see
Are the reindeer already
On the roof next door.
A pair of jean so low-cut they show half of your butt
Is the wish of many a teen.
Elmos that talk and mechanically walk
Frankly, scare the crap out of me.
And mom and dad just give you cash
Because they hate shopping.
Why is it already looking like Christmas?
Halloween was yesterday.
All the goblins and ghouls are gone.
Merchants moved quickly on.
They switched the witch for Santa right away!
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Soon the sales will start...
And the day after Thanksgiving
You’ll go 5:00 am shopping
At the nearest mall.
A pair of size-seven boots will cause violent disputes,
Because they’re the last ones in stock.
Lines will be long and the urge will be strong
To forget the whole thing and walk.
And mom and dad are home in bed
Still sleeping like a rock.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
As this season starts,
I hope we’re all remembering
The holiday’s true meaning
And keep it in our hearts.
This is my favorite verse! Thanks for the laugh! :)
