  Merry Xmas Everybody - Slade

  Look to the future now, its only just begun

  Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
  Are you sure you got the room to spare inside?
  Does your Granny always tell ya, that the old songs are the best?
  Then shes up and rock and rollin with the rest

  Look to the future now, its only just begun

  What will your Daddy do when he sees your mama kissin Santa Claus?
  Aha-ah

  Are you hoping that the snow will start to fall?
  Do you ride on down the hillside, on a buggy you have made?
  When you land upon your head then youve been Slayed

  So here it is, Merry Christmas, everybodys having fun
  Look to the future now, its only just begun

  So here it is, Merry Christmas, everybodys having fun

  This is such nice thread. These songs sure do give one a feeling of love and joy don't they. I have to say, my favorite is, Grandma got run over by a reindeer.

  Christmas tunes? blech... I am with LB on this one...

  NIN - Kinda I Want To

  i can't shake this feeling from my head. there's a devil sleeping in my bed. he's watching you from across the way. i cannot make this feeling go away

  i know it's not the right thing. and i know it's not the good thing. but kinda i want to. kinda i want to

  i'm not sure of what i should do. when everything i'm thinking of is you. all of my excuses turn to lies. maybe God will cover up his eyes

  i know it's not the right thing. and i know it's not the good thing. but kinda i want to. kinda i want to

  maybe just for tonight. we can pretend it's alright. what's the price i pay. i don't care what they say. i want to. i want to (i'll take my chance tonight)

  Theres only one Christmas song: Silent Night. No- I'm not joking!!! I don't mean a SILENT NIGHT.

  But Silent Night is a true classic. I play it on the guitar. It's very simple and quite beautiful. I haven't looked it up but I think it goes back to old medieval days.

  Or...

  NIN - Head Like a Hole

  bow down before the one you serve
  you're going to get what you deserve

  god money i'll do anything for you
  god money just tell me what you want me to
  god money nail me up against the wall
  god money don't want everything he wants it all
  no, you can't take it
  no, you can't take that away from me
  
  head like a hole
  black as your soul
  i'd rather die
  than give you control
  
  god money's not looking for the cure
  god money's not concerned about the sick among the pure
  god money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised
  god money's not one to choose
  no, you can't take it
  no, you can't take that away from me
  
  head like a hole
  black as your soul
  i'd rather die
  than give you control
  
  bow down before the one you serve
  you're going to get what you deserve

  Moe,

  Nine Inch Nails and "Head Like a Hole" rawks!

  This is my favorite part of the song:

  "head like a hole
  black as your soul
  i'd rather die
  than give you control
  
  bow down before the one you serve
  you're going to get what you deserve"

  Thanks for posting.

  Moe,

  How is this for an atypical Christmas song?

  Father Christmas
  Performed by - The Kinks

  When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
  Though I knew it was my dad
  And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
  Open my presents and I'd be glad
  
  But the last time I played Father Christmas
  I stood outside a department store
  A gang of kids came over and mugged me
  And knocked my reindeer to the floor
  
  They said
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  Don't mess around with those silly toys.
  We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
  We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
  Give all the toys to the little rich boys
  
  Don't give my brother a real trashy outfit
  Don't give my sister a cuddly toy
  We don't want a jigsaw or monopoly money
  We only want the real McCoy
  
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  We'll beat you up if you make us annoyed
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  Don't mess around with those silly toys
  
  But give my daddy a job 'cause he needs one
  He's got lots of mouths to feed
  But if you've got one, I'll have a machine gun
  So I can scare all the kids down the street
  
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  We got no time for your silly toys
  We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
  Give all the toys to the little rich boys
  
  Have yourself a Merry Merry Christmas
  Have yourself a good time
  But remember the kids who got nothin'
  While you're drinkin' down your wine
  
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  We got no time for your silly toys
  We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
  We want your bread, so don't make us annoyed
  
  Father Christmas, give us some money
  We got no time for your silly toys
  We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
  Give all the toys to the little rich boys
