SILVER BELLS AND GODLESS HELLS
(to the tune of the traditional Christmas carol "Silver Bells")
Lyrics (c)2005 Emi M. Briet
City sidewalks, busy sidewalks
Dressed in Halloween styles
But in stores there's a feeling of Christmas
Children greeting, trick-or-treating
Getting candy for smiles
But in that nearby Wal-Mart, you'll hear
CHORUS
Silver bells
And godless hells
It's Christmastime in October
Ring-a-lings
And bumping things
They're moving up Christmas day!
Ghosts and phantoms, jack-o-lanterns
Glow in odd orange light
As the shoppers rush home with... their presents??
Hear the twigs crunch, see the ghouls bunch
This day of Halloween
But the retail displays make you hear
CHORUS x 2
They're moving up Christmas day!
