Also sorry for Nowell Sing We Clear-posting straight through the month of December but I started listening to another of their albums for the first time in the like 15 years I've been listening to Best of (an album which was apparently my mom's old boss's Christmas present to them one year and which I found behind the couch in our CD stash sometime in middle school and promptly proceeded to torture everyone in a five-mile radius by listening to it fifty times every December thereafter) and the version of "The Derby Ram" on this new one still has the classic "Oh, the man that wrote this song, sir, he must be mighty rich / And the one who sings it now, sir, is a lying son of a [VERY LOUD HORN NOISES AND GENERAL COMMOTION]", but also the chorus on this one is "And indeed, my lads, it's true, my lads / I never was known to lie" LITERALLY DOUBLE DOWN WE GO HARD OR WE GO HOME

#i do think it would be really funny to draw biblically accurate derby ram #i think it would look like one of those drawings where the proportions are decided by tumblr poll #this new version of the derby ram is even more incohesive (or maybe i'm just desensitivized to the other one)#but it's very pretty! fun and funky remix (aka entirely different melody)#this was always one of my favorites as a kid but i did not have good enough lyrics processing skills to even know they were censoring it #love a good old song where the guys are like hi we're swindling you :) no jk we're not idk what you're talking about :)#perce rambles
