I confess: I LOVE Christmas music! Serious. Secular. Funny. I love ’em all.
This is one of my faves.
I also love writing poetry, especially in the form of song parody.
Today I had some free time, and this happened.
Enjoy. Or laugh. Just don’t blow snot on my computer.

Graybie Baby
Is laying under the Christmas tree
He sees
A shine bauble and then
Graybie Baby
knocks the Christmas tree on its’ side
Graybie Baby
Chews up all of the tinsel too
Then pukes blue
I was up all night with you
Graybie Baby
You sure know how to do Christmas right *heavy sigh*
Christmas fun is not to be missed
These cats are all in, they’ve amassed quite a list
They calm down when told to be good
Then they’re right back at it; Lord, I am PISSED!
Graybie Baby
When I am mad to my leg he’ll cling
And sing
He says he is a good boy
Graybie Baby
I gotta hand it to ya, you’re right!

I’m a Christmas music crazy too … any and all of them! Love your take on this classic 🙂
I have another one too I’m working on. Did I say I was bored at work today? LOL
A nice change from your crazy busy days. Good for us too if you keep pumping these tunes out!!
Yeah it was this or read auditing principles….. I chose to write poetry.
I needed a laugh tonight. So, thanks.
Do you have a very favorite piece of Christmas music? If it’s too hard to pick, then two favorites.
Oh that’s too hard. I love almost anything by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra and I love Handel’s Messiah. And the Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies.
I would have been horribly disappointed had you been able to narrow it down to one.
If you haven’t already, try Monteverdi’s, “Selva morale”–the Gloria in particular. Not Handel, no, but a delight to listen to all the same.
I had not even heard of this collection before! What I know about classical music I’ve learned from encounters with people such as you and by listening to public radio. So thank you. I listened to part of a performance by Concierto de Gabriel Garrido y Ensemble Elyma on YouTube. Do you recommend a particular performance? I will download and listen to it at work. That ought to keep me awake!
The performance that you listened to is my favorite by far. Usually, a visual can be distracting but in this case, the audio/visual interplay makes it even more mesmerizing. It’s especially good because the performers present such strong caricatures, as if they were hand-selected expressly for a video recording. Three other single selections to add to your Christmas list, all of which I am sure that you’ve heard: “O Mio Bambino Caro,” “Nessun Dorma,” and “Ombra Mai Fu.” (I have a weakness for Puccini, any time of year. And when I think I’ve cried my last tear because this world has exhausted the reservoir, these last three get me going again. Every time!)
I listened to all 3. Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma -wow!
Most excellent. I hope you can add one or all to your list of favorites and eventually is soon enough. But you’re right, of course: nothing breathes passion like, “The Messiah.” Brings me to my knees and then some. But there are times when I’d rather stand up and laugh so I will continue to hum your re-write and thank you for it!
LMAO! 😉 xoM
Enjoy Margarita!
I like the song also and your parody really good. Gotta love them. Mischievous though they are. I had one I just knew was going to be sick sneaking under the tree and drinking its’ water. Whatever it was full of he didn’t mind one bit. 🙂
Wow! Hope there’s no preservative chemicals in that tree!
Nope! But even so my thought was that it couldn’t be good because of sap and pine needles. Would never use any kind of a chemical around my pets.
🙂

Lovely song. So the Dog and Cats love each other ?
Oh yes. Well, they at least tolerate each other.
ha ha ha ha

Ya never know! Thanks!

We’ve bought silly hats for our dogs and cats and are going to try to take pictures – how much blood did you lose? 😀
None- these were photoshopped. 😀
HA! Maybe we should go down that road 😀
Love it! I’ve the new kitten – he thinks we are absolutely insane to put this giant toy in the living room. Yes, Lumi, it is ALL FOR YOU.
Even the broom when I sweep up the mess you make 🙂
Ah Lumi, wait till the boxes come out!!!
He’ll be waiting – not much money for presents this year! But I bring him boxes from work sometimes to play in. And of course, tree-water is the best thing evah.
Cats just want the boxes! 🐱🐱🐱
Woo! That was really great!!!!
Thanks!!!!
