Bat Out Of Christmas
 

ok ok ok ok, so I've either got too much time on my hands or too much wine inside my body, or, perhaps both :lol:

Anyway, a little Christmas offering for you all...... with sincere apologies to Meat and Jim :D



The sleighbells are ringing and the choirs are wassailing
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gleaming red coat
And a beard shining oh so white
There's snow flakes in the air and there's tinsel in the tree
And there's frost lying on the icy streets
Oh and from the kicthen window where the turkey is roasting
Oh I swear I saw a reindeer
Up on the rooftop
His nose glowing red in the sleet

Oh Baby, that's only present in this whole world that's pure
and good and right
And wherever you are and whatever you're given
This one's always gonna be so right
But I gotta get out
I gotta wrap it up now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our last sheet of paper
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone

That Santa Claus out of hell
He''ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like Santa Claus out of hell he'll be gone gone gone
Like a Santa Claus out of hell he'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the gifts are delivered
And moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll have something to give to you

I'm gonna hit the presents like a battering ram
Throwing wrapping paper everyway
When the oven is hot and the family are hungry
And we're all about to start the soup
No toys ever work by Boxing Day
All the batteries are flat
And nothing really works
And nothings really needed And all the batteries are flat
And I know that I'm damned if I never buy a gift
And maybe I'm damned if I do
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
You know I'd rather buy a gift for you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Pulling crackers through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Pulling crackers through the night
Crackers through the night
Pulling crackers through the night with you

Oh Baby, that's only present in this whole world that's pure
and good and right
And wherever you are and whatever you give me
This one's always gonna be so right
But I gotta get out
I gotta unwrap it now
Before the final crack of dawn
We really made the most of our last sheet of paper
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone

Like Santa Claus out of hell
He'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like Santa Claus out of hell he'll be gone gone gone
Like Santa Claus out of hell he'll be gone when the morning comes
But Brandy is drunk
And the grans asleep
And moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
I'll come crawling on back to you

I can see myself tearing up the paper
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is raw from the sellotape
No one's gonna stop me now
I gotta open ev'ry gift
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden gift until it's way too late
I never see the sudden gift till it's way too late

Then I'm dying at the bottom of a tree in a mess of gifts
Torn and twisted with at the foot of a gleaming tree
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I hear is "dinner"
Time for turkey
Breaking out of kitchen
And ready to eat
Like a turkey out of hell
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a tree in a mess of gifts
Torn and twisted at the foot of a gleaming tree
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I hear is "dinner"
Time for turkey
Time for turkey
Breaking out of kicthen and ready to eat
From Santa Claus out of hell
From Santa Claus out of hell
From Santa Claus out of hell
From Santa Claus out of hell
From Santa Claus out of hell
From Santa Claus out of hell


Merry Christmas all!!

AndyK :D
... wondering if this would be a good point to get his coat?

thank you, my daughter who is back here on holiday ,and i really enjoyed your song we sat and sang it :D :D :D

Andy that was brilliant, you should Pm that to Meat, he would love it. Perhaps he could record that for next xmas and see if it gets to No 1, after all the crap that is in the top 5 this week its got a good chance.

Well done mate you made me laugh

Christa xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So that's what too much Christmas wine does for you, Andy! :wink:
(I loved it) I always put the final ornaments on my tree on Christmas Eve, so tomorrow I'll think of your poem while I do that :)
Merry Christmas!

:twisted: An ode to last minute xmas shopping, and the mistakes made during......

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII want my money back.
(sing it like you mean it)
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII want my money back.
(They're gonna crock your world)

It's all or nothing.
and nothings all i ever get.
every time I see a gift, a grannie appears and grabs it first.
you look for something.
you look for something that is good.
it's the only guarentee.
that the best stuff has sold out.

it's a never ending attack.
you'll get it wrong and that's a fact.
this gifts a lemon and I want my money back.

And all the morons.
and all the loonies with their prams.
there's a guy behind me with a trolly
and he's just pushed it in my back
there's desperation.
kids knocking ice cream everywhere
it leaves a stain on all your clothes
and no detergent gets it out.

and we're searching through clothes racks
buy my dad slippers or get him slacks?
this gifts a lemon and I want my money back

What about an orniment?
it's defective.
they always end up broke in half

what about a raters braclet?
it's defective.
It was never made to really last

what about a toy car?
it's defective
all the batteries are shot

what about a train set?
it's defective
it was the first thing out of stock

what about flowers?
there defective
thery're all wilted and decayed

what about a jacket?
it's defective.
what's left is tattered and very fraid

what about a toaster?
it's defective.
they forgot the waurentee

what about a sock pack
it's defective
that's what he buys me

what about a shirt?
it's defective.
then i'd have to hunt for ties

an electric blanket?
IF it's defective
you sleep and then you fry

that last box of chocolates?
it's defective.
someone else way way to fast.

the Darkness's new album
it's defective
my bro's a fan of Super TRRRRRRAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPPP

IIIIIIIIIIII want my money back.
IIIIIIIIIIII want my money back.

it's all or nothing
and nothings what i'm taking home
the shops are closing
we've been thrown out

now i'm having a heart attack
i've bought a pile of useless crap
this gifts a lemon and I want my money back.

and now we're slipping on paving slabs
you know you'll never gat a cab
these gifts are lemons and I want my money BACK.

Good luck to anyone with last minute shopping to do.
Just one word of advice.
DON'T GET IN MY WAY :twisted:

LOL.... what have I started???


Nice one!


Just glad I did ALL my shopping online this year after reading that :D

Omg, those are so good! Ive saved them, I bet you could make some money from writing stuff like that, or is it only when youre drunk? :D :D

Chrissy x

Great parodies Andy and Neil, gotta love the fun stuff! :D

And to everyone:

Happy Holidays!

Jules 8)

These are great, great start to christmas. Meat would be proud. :D

Great job FM. Standing ovation for you too :lmao:

This really doesn't bode well for Mrs. Mouse's present......

A word to the wise Mousie - Red Lingerie that's 4 sizes too big and anything 'practical' for the kitchen really AREN'T good ideas......

We all need help. . .

Great song words. I don't know how you do it.

Merry Christmas

LMAO those are great.

Great Job People

I Couldn't Have Said it Better Myself Badger :lmao:

Vicki

But we wouldn't have it any other way :lmao:

Right you are :)) :))
Vicki

Neil that's great! The morons, the loonies, the desperation.....
Sounds like the malls are exactly the same everywhere :lol:
-Kathy

Which is why I do my shopping on-line :)) Isn't technology great ? :lol:

Vicki

Brilliant thanks for the laugh...i've sung them quietly as everybidy even the dog is snoring, & i'm still wrapping presents!!

Where do you get your inspiration, i will sing these alot louder later.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Andy and Flying Mouse- outstanding work! FM, that's exactly how I felt yesterday as I fought the crowds in 4 different stores looking for a "bop bag"- the inflatable punching bags that a child can whallop and they pop back up- it's amazing how its easy to find the really technically complex toys but the simple ones are really hard to find! Finally found one, just in time!

Re: Bat Out Of Christmas
 

ANDY THAT WAS FANTASTIC LOVE IT!

Thanks Andy. :lmao: I love your Xmas version.

HAHAHHAHA!! ROFL! LOL! :lol: :lol: :lol:

This is so much fun! I know I'm a bit late, but my favourite Meaty song is IGLHFBOU, so here goes...

Ahem...

I can't stand to see it no more
The nasty knitted jumper I got from Aunty Mave
And I can't stand to hear them no more
The same old Christmas songs I've heard ten times every day...

And I'll be closer to you now than any other boy, so you know what I'm saying is true,
I'm truly sick and tired of Christmas TV because there's never anything that is new,
No there's never anything that is new,
No there's never anything that is new,
But if you give me a gun
And you give me your trust
And if you give me till the end of the night

I'll make it better for all of us
(I'm gonna take out the Eastenders Omnibus)
I'll make it better for all of us
(I'm gonna get rid of Coronation Street too)

I'm gonna put on some new episodes of Doctor Who-ooo,
Cause I've been waiting many years but now its just a bloody cartoon!
And if you're really lucky maybe even Fight Club too,
And while we eat our turkey, we can all be watching Meat Loaf, WOOO!!

But you gotta give me your gun and your trust
I'll make it better for all of us

...

When the corks are popping and the wine is flowing
Well, I always try and sneak away
But like a bolt of lightning my mum is there
Standing in the door in the way
I never wanted to really hurt my mother
But oh I just had to get away
I never get what I want
And my smile's beginning to fade
My smile is beginning to fade
There ain't no holding me back!

...

you gotta give me your gun and your trust
I'll make it better for all of us
I'll make it better for all of us
I'll make it better for all of us
I'll make it better for all of us
(I'm gonna get rid of all the rubbish on the Christmas TV)
I'll make it better for all of us
(I'm gonna make it so that all you ever get is mon-ey)
I'll make it better for all of us
(Christmas songs are gonna be history)

I'll make it better for all of us
(You'll never ever have to talk to lots of long lost Aunties)
I'll make it better for all of us
(Your mum and dad won't sing and overdo the sherry)
I'll make it better for all of us
(Everyone's gonna be more merry)
I'll make it better for all of us...



Phew! I'm exhausted...

TRex

I loved it thank you for all the time and effort that you put into it, I really loved it. :)

Love & Happiness
Autumn

:twisted: Great stuff :lol: .
Rock on TRex 8)

That was great Trex :D

Since I had so much fun last time (and I can't bloody sleep!!! :lol: ) I thought I'd Christmas-ise another Steinsong...

(It's not late, it's early for this year!)

Baby you can sulk all night
But that ain't getting you nowhere
I bought you everything that I possibly can
Theres nothing left to buy you

And baby you can cry all night
But that ain't gonna change the presents downstairs
The shops are all shut and the receipts in the bin
I wish you'd just go to sleep now

I borrowed money and worked overtime
I tried to buy you the best that I could
But nothing I buy is ever good enough
And all I get is choc-o-late
And socks or bloody useless handkerchiefs

Am I getting through? What more can I do?
I've had it!
I'm fed up!
And there ain't no way I'll spend one more Christmas with you,
Now don't be sad
Cause what you got this year ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause what you got this year ain't bad

You never wanted friendship or true love from me
All you're interested in is gold and money
I know you'll probably stick around until my cash is gone
And there's no bank in all the world willing to pay for one of your shopping sprees!

I cannot lie!
I cannot tell you I've bought something I've not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able
To give you something
Something that I just haven't got [nice bit of cut and paste there :lol:]

You were the only girl that I will ever love
But that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get you out of my heart
You never loved me back
Ooh I know [nice bit of cut and paste there AGAIN! :lol:]
Well I remember how you first looked when you saw my wallet
Your heart pumped and your eyes lit up red
And though I pleaded and I begged you not to walk out that door
You took my cash and ran right away

So now I'll keep on telling you
Keep on telling you
Keep on telling you
I'm leaving
It's through
And there ain't no way I'll spend one more Christmas with you,
Now don't be sad
Cause what you got this year ain't bad
Now don't be sad
Cause what you got this year ain't bad


Baby you can sulk all night
But that ain't getting you nowhere


God I'm wasted in finance :)

okay, i admit, pretty funny lyrics guys!!! :lmao:

Love it!!!

Nice work TRex :D
