Here’s my annual grinchy contribution to ccM’s annual holiday song project. I think this one is kinda… joyous sounding? (What happened?!?) Anyway, I hope you like. The stems are in the zips w/ and w/o FX.

Happy New Year, dear musical friends.

Shout out to Scomber- his song inspired me to put “ho, ho, ho” in a song. Thanks, Scomber!

WORDS
It’s Christmas time again
Everyone’s wrapped in tradition
Not me
They’re putting up their lights
Deck the Halls and Silent Nights
But not me

Got my own plans set in gear
Gonna take after the bears
And hibernate
Got my own plans good and done
Gonna have a bunch of fun
And hibernate
‘Til New Year’s Day

It’s Christmas time again
Everyone is buyin’ things
But not me
Corporations selling joy
The latest gadgets and the newest toys
Not to me

Got my own plans set in gear
Gonna take after the bears
And hibernate
Got my own plans good and done
Gonna have a bunch of fun
And hibernate
‘Til New Year’s Day

Oh no, ho ho ho
Ugly sweaters and mistletoe
Oh no, ho ho ho
Naughty or nice Santa jokes
Oh no, ho ho ho
Cutting down trees that help us breathe
Oh no, ho ho ho
Endless Christmas songs on the radio
Oh no, ho ho ho

(Kazoo and Whistle Break)

Got my own plans set in gear
Gonna take after the bears
And hibernate
Got my own plans good and done
Gonna have a bunch of fun
And hibernate
Got my own plans set in gear
Gonna take after the bears
And hibernate
‘Til New Year’s Day
