Today I am sharing a previously unreleased song from the archives. Originally written in 2023, it wasn’t posted because Angel Chuck Billy at the time came up with a more pressing topic that couldn’t wait. Then last year, well I wasn’t in a singing mood. But Christmas is a time all about second chances! So without further ado, here is the original post as intended…
We are now in the final stretch waiting for Santa! Anticipation is building! Will we be on the Nice List? Will we get all the bacon scented squeaky balls that Chuck Billy requested? Only time will tell! Therefore while we wait for Santa’s arrival, I wrote this parody to the tune of Europe’s “The Final Countdown.” Except instead of an amazing keyboard solo, I’m using Christmas bells! So without further ado, namely because Chuck Billy can’t wait anymore, here is my latest parody, The Christmas Countdown!
We’re waitin’ for Santa
Not much time to go
And maybe we’ll bake snacks
For him to say, “Ho!”
I guess there is no time to waste
He’s leaving soon (leaving soon)
Will Santa hurry up and get here now?
It’s the Christmas countdown
The Christmas countdown
Oh
We’re waitin’ for Santa (Santa!)
And hope for a ball
But maybe Elves seen us?
And told Santa all, yeah
With so many presents at stake
And things to be squeaked (to be squeaked)
I’m sure we can all make amends
It’s the Christmas countdown
The Christmas countdown
The Christmas countdown (Christmas countdown)
(Oh) Oh!
[Rocking Christmas jungle bells solo]
The Christmas countdown, oh
It’s the Christmas countdown
The Christmas countdown
The Christmas countdown (Christmas countdown)
(Oh) Oh!
It’s the Christmas countdown
We’re waitin’ together
(The Christmas countdown)
We’ve got mistletoe
It’s the Christmas countdown (Christmas countdown)
(Oh) Oh!
It’s the Christmas countdown
Yeah!
