The Lyrics

Tradition, tradition, tradition!

All day long they shop for Christmas presents
Bake the Christmas cookies
Mail the Christmas cards
And at night they don their gay aparrel
Do the the Christmas caroling.

The mommas, the Goyim. Tradition!
The mommas, the Goyim. Tradition!

Starting in July we sell the Christmas gifts
The latest gifts, the finest gifts
Who's the one who works all night on Christmas Eve
So they'll believe there is a Santa Claus.

The merchants, the Goyim. Tradition!
The merchants, the Goyim. Tradition!

I bought a peignoir for my wife, I 'spose I'll get a tie
If I don't find a Christmas tree my kids will hate me.

The papa, the Goyim. Tradition!
The papa, the Goyim. Tradition!

And who leaves children loot if they don't whine and kvetch
Brings little to the poor folks and plenty to the rich.

Santa Claus, the Goyim. Tradition!
Santa Claus, the Goyim. Tradition!

Santa: Merry Christmas, ya little pischers, and to all a good night!

All: Bah, humbug! Bah, humbug!

Ly de dy dy, ly de dy dy
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Ly de dy dy, ly de dy dy
'Tis the season to biri biri bom!

Tradition, tradition, tradition!
Tradition, tradition, tradition!

Fiddle (sic) solo

And don't shoot out your eye, Ralphie!

Without our traditions, we would be as shaky...as a Santa On The Roof! Mazeltov!! ;D

Eagle...I'm sorry! I left you out of my song. No slight intended...I really enjoy your stuff! ;D

Your parodies "traditionally" get you fives, and this is no exception!!!

Once again, you have written a good parody. Turning a Jewish hymn into a half-Jewish-half-gentile holiday song is quite a remarkable ability, and I've seen you do it before here. This will get you some holiday 5s, one for Hanukkah, one for Christmas, and one for Festivus.

Thanks, Mark and Andria. I also turned Christmas carols into Yiddish humor. The security matches - 4yd.

DKTOS, but a good write and a fun read. Bonus points for the Ralphie ending. Sec. code is eyy, don't shoot it out! ;-)

If I were 2Eagle (ha ha ha ha ha ha, piddle, twiddle, doodle, scribble some...) write great songs for boys and girls to hum... Everyone on AmIRIGHT... :D

Original, well-crafted, humorous, and all-around terrific!

Thanks, blackie. Eyy sounds like da Fonz. Thanks, Fiddlegirl. Demented songs for carolers.

So, when is the Hannukkah parody from the rock musical, "Jesus Christ, Superstar"? :-) ... and in addition to Andria's comment, what about Kwanzaa and Ramadan? Not to mention the Norse and Druid festivals of winter solstice, etc. :-D

Very clever concept, other than misspelling TOS author's name ;) 555 -- TT

Love this funny carol o'Goy und Joy', Lord 2Ease !
2Eagle - December 10, 2009 - Report this comment
Thanks, Shalom and LilBulb. I can't cover everything - I write whatever comes to mind. I live in Southern California where almost everybody is Jewish and nobody thinks about solstace.

Hey, what's this "Everybody in SoCal is Jewish" business? All celebs are Scientologists! ... And half of them are in solstice-abuse clinics, besides. ;) -- Tom(my)

Jay Leno is in SoCal, and like me, was raised in a Catholic household but is currently nonreligious. (Sorry if I sound like Dr Music there, with the Leno reference, but I think he's funny, a great humanitarian and good-looking too.)

Thanks, Tom (Turtle?), and Andria (not Wolfson, oim shurr). I can never be precise, but I would say one quarter of the population is Jewish, one quarter is Catholic, another quarter is Protestant and the rest are athiest, Buddhist, Muslim, etc..

Yep, 'twas moi (hence the "Tom-my). Lived in the Southland myself for a while, and it seems that what gets worshiped most is money. :) :) :)

didn't like "solstice-abuse", huh? Don't blame ya - that was pretty poor, and a bad stretch besides. Lemme try to make it up to you with a parody idea: "We Wish You A Merry Bris-Mas". ... going farther downhill, eh? OK, the Lewinsky scandal (she was the first JAP ever known to go down, surely deserving of a place in history, if not parody):

It's Hannukah for Monica;
Delight thy men, oral

Better quit while I still have a head (no Lewinsky ref intended). ANY-way, whatever the percentage is, if it's yours, have a happy!

Happy Hanukkah, 2Eagle. :-)

Thanks, TTNC - Hannukah and Monica rhyme. Look up Monica - The Stinkweed of the West which was one of my first parodies.

Thanks, Andria and a happy whatever to you.

You're welcome, 2Eagle. Around my house, it's Christmas and Festivus.
