Song Parodies -> "Christmas In Our Bills"
Original Song Title:
"Christmas In Our Hearts"
Original Performer:
Jose Mari Chan and Rina Cañiza
Parody Song Title:
"Christmas In Our Bills"
Parody Written by:
The Whiz Kid Forte
The Lyrics
This came as an inspiration from the Video rats’ parody commercial of the album Now That's A Cost Of Living Christmas. It would feature songs like “The Cost-of-Living Song,” “Debt Over Christmas,” and “Mary’s Boiler (God, It’s Cold).” As a nod to struggling struggling Overseas Filipino Workers, this inflation-inspired twist on a Jose Mari Chan classic could be a guaranteed bonus track!
(Instrumental intro)
Male singer:
Whenever I see girls and boys
All panhandling on the streets
I remember last month
When we ran in trouble deep
Whenever there are people
All in gas lines, paying more
I realize that Christmas
Is dearer than before
Can’t afford that parol
Rent is due tomorrow
Inflation’s lost control
The bills are high, MY GOSH!
Female singer:
We’re in debt this Christmas
What a crummy holiday!
This season there will be a cold snap
Can’t afford the heat
Woman sighs:
AYE-SOS!
Female singer:
May we all stay warm together
As we brave the season’s chills
‘Cause those expenses of Christmas
Will show up in our bills!
Male singer:
In every food bank in our town
The communities unite
Sharing those sob stories
Of their budgets – oh-so tight
They put down their own dogs –
And their cats, too, they mourn
And they stand here, all moping
Some wish they weren’t born
So, come let us grovel
Sing a sad Christmas carol
With every morose voice
Proclaim economy’s bad…
Female and male singers:
We’re in debt this Christmas
What a crummy holiday!
This season there will be a cold snap
Can’t afford the heat –
Man sighs:
AYE-SOS!
Female and male singers:
May we all stay warm together
As we brave the season’s chills
‘Cause those expenses of Christmas
Will show up in our bills!
Chorus:
We’re in debt this Christmas
What a crummy holiday!
This season there will be a cold snap
Can’t afford the heat –
Crowd groaning:
AYE-SOS!
Chorus:
May we all stay warm together
As we brave the season’s chills
‘Cause those expenses of Christmas
Will show up in our bills!
