hold the ho ho...
here comes something from the bottom of my
teeny tiny heart:

Sorry Christmas - CVM - MP3 5:47mins

words & music by CVM (lyrics below)
vocals - cvm
spanish guitar (the $5 special) - reid jamieson
pine bough on djembe - reido
trumpet sounds - reido's lips

cvm 7 or 8 years?

seasonal greetings from she who puts the x in xmas, the bug in humbuggery,
the ho in ho ho ho...

i truly do hope that you all have had the very best of times, safe and warm in the bosom of your families and loved ones...but as most of you know, i simply dont 'do' xmas myself. for maybe 8 years now. yeay for me! that said, i have prepared (with a little help from reid) a little ditty on the subject. twill take a moment to load. and it's horribly off key:

Sorry Christmas - CVM - MP3

almost didn't record this, but i remembered one xmas eve that you all might need a little tongue in cheekiness to help you remember the ghost of xmas poop.

sorry christmas

***

i dont have a problem with you mister
its just a sorry
christmas
for me

i just have a problem with your system
when its a sorry
christmas
for me

i aint got no use for snow
or time for killin trees
Its just a sorry
christmas
for me

*

the streets are cold
and children live boxes
the mosque is closed
and peace has disappeared

a man is born, finds his soul
and then hocks it
now he's smoking coal
and chugging christmas cheer

i aint got no use for blow
or time for killin sprees
oh its a sorry
christmas
for me

*

carrying this sorry bag of
treasures
would rather it meant
nothing more
to me

but i cant escape these
gifts of guilt and
pressure,
so here i am,
in red again,
and wrapped in irony

yeah, i aint got no use for snow
or time for killin trees
Its just a sorry
christmas
for me

*

i dont have a problem with you mister
its just a sorry
christmas
for me

yeah i might have an issue with your system
when its a sorry
christmas
for me

i dont have a present for my sister
its just a sorry
christmas
for me

i aint got no mistle toe
or kissin......
its just a sorry
christmas
for me.
