♫ Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer - Redux ♫

This is one of those “just for fun” holiday songs, but it never fails to bring a smile to my face, perhaps because there’s a personal connection.  (Don’t worry, Carolyn … I’ll be playing yours either tomorrow or Saturday night!!!) Baby Goose My granddaughter Natasha, aka Miss Goose, was just over a year old, having been born on 28 November 1994.  I worked long hours and missed most of her waking…

Cyclops Got Run Over by his Ex-Wife

Merry X-Mas, everyone! Here's your yearly dose of a parody me and my friends wrote decades ago.

CYCLOPS GOT RUN OVER BY HIS EX-WIFE Idea: Caitlin “Phoenix” Grey Lyrics: Caitlin Grey, @nobodysuspectsthebutterfly, CRETIN, and DkPhoenix Created in December 1995 in IRC, slightly revised December 1998          

Cyclops got run over by his ex-wife, Patrolling ‘round the mansion Christmas Eve, You may say there’s no such thing as cloning, But as for me and Essex, we believe.      

He’d been swigging down his eggnog, And we begged him not to go, But Scott (that dork)’s so dedicated, So he wobbled out the door into the snow.      

When we found him Christmas morning, At the scene of the attack, There were claw-marks on his forehead, And Infernal-looking symbols on his back.      

Cyclops got run over by his ex-wife, Patrolling ‘round the mansion Christmas Eve, You can say there’s no such thing as cloning, But as for me and Essex, we believe.      

Well, we’re all so proud of Cable, He’s been taking this so well, Not a tear to rust his metal, He just sits there playing cards with Sis Rachel.      

It’s not Christmas without Cyclops, All the X-Men dressed in black, And we just can’t help but wonder, Should we go to Sinister and clone him back? (CLONE HIM BACK!!)  

Cyclops got run over by his ex-wife, Patrolling ‘round the mansion Christmas Eve, You may say there’s no such thing as cloning, But as for me and Essex, we believe.      

Now that Scott is six feet under, Jean’s conscience is clear and clean, My! Her luck is so uncanny, At last she can go out with Wolverine.      

I’ve warned all my friends and mutants, Maddie could be after you, They should have never given powers To a gal who had Phoenix to live up to.      

Cyclops got run over by his ex-wife, Patrolling ‘round the mansion Christmas Eve, You can say there’s no such thing as cloning, But as for me and Essex, we believe.      

Sing it, Nathans!!      

Cyclops got run over by his ex-wife, Patrolling 'round the mansion Christmas Eve, You may say there’s no such thing as cloning, But as for me and Essex, we believe!

Elmo & Patsy - Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer (Oink, 1982) - Design and art direction by Art Andersen in association with Moser & Associates, photograph by Andrew Breier

There are actually two recordings of this song: the original 1978 recording and a re-recording from 1982. The latter is what's included here and is the most common version now in circulation.

Later re-released by Epic in 1984.

let's be haters together this christmas <3

(based on my own opinions and the responses from that one inthetags post from a few weeks ago lol)

[appleteeth]

Note, I tried to think of the songs that are actually hated, not just overplayed.

Don't forget to share to widen the reach!

Edit: For the people saying I missed out [popular overplayed Christmas song], this was made in response to another poll with the sort of songs you'll hear on hard rotation throughout December. (If you do have to regularly listen to any of the songs I've listed, I am so sorry.)

[brostateexam]

That other poll did not even begin to scratch the surface of bad Christmas music, so let's go.

♫ Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer – Redux ♫

I don’t play many Christmas songs, but I do play a few of the secular sort, and as we are in the final week before the holiday, I will try to play a few Christmas songs for the rest of the week!  This is one I’ve played a few times, but not for the past three years, and it always brings some chuckles, especially in light of my personal connection to the song. Baby Goose My granddaughter Natasha,…

Dumb Headcanon #30583: The DMC Crew’s Favorite Christmas Songs

Dante: Santa Claus is Back in Town by Elvis Presley

You know, the one that says Santa’s coming in a big black Cadillac. Big Dante Energy right there.

Vergil: Happy Xmas (War Is Over) by John Lennon and Yoko Ono

This one is a bit angstier than the others. The line “Have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year, let’s hope it’s a good one without any fear” hits home particularly hard for poor ol’ Vergil.

Nero: Christmas Sarajevo 12/24 by Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Because it’s a rock remix of Carol of the Bells. Duh.

V: We Need a Little Christmas by Johnny Mathis

I originally went the angsty route with V’s, but then I decided that the mental image of V aggressively getting ready for Christmas as quickly as possible before he literally falls apart is WAY funnier.

Nico: Grandma Got Ran Over By a Reindeer by Elmo and Patsy

…Do I even have to explain this one?
