Ain't it great re-lyricking old carols! We should make a CD of New Old Carols with modern words....I can see them now stocked up beside Chia Pets in Walmart!

Dingdong merrily lay-by, All round the tills are ringing, Doggone verily we buy, our plastic cards aflinging. Gloria, how's Anna's debt extending?
