Twas the night before the gig, when all through the band's apartment

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The drummers wife's stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

 

My band mates were nestled all snug in their beds,

While visions of hot groupies and record deals danced in their heads.

Me with my honey in her Van Halen T, and I typing away on Gibson Forum.com,

We just fell asleep so peaceful and calm.

 

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,

I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash,

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

 

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,

But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer.

 

With a little old guitarist playing some killer lead licks,

I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.

He came down the chimney quick as a flash,

Holding a Les Paul that was signed by Slash.

 

He gave our drummer a 10 piece DW kit,

And gave our bassist the most expensive 5 string Warwick.

 

He stuffed all the stockings with new strings and picks,

I said WOW this can't be real, there was even a signed recording contract, a 5 album deal!

 

He rose up the chimney and hopped in his sleigh and I heard KISS songs begin to play,

He yelled and screamed as he rode out of site, Merry Christmas to all and have a hard rockin night!

 

 

Happy Holiday's Everyone! [thumbup]

Merry Christmas to all

From here in the UK.

We've had lots of snow

Looks like it's here to stay

 

So, it could be a White Christmas

that's what they have said

So lock up those doors

And stay in your bed

 

So here's to a good Christmas

All the best to you all

And that Father Chrstmas

Has brought you a Les Paul.

Merry Christmas to everyone

(and to your families, too,)

But my holiday has come and gone,

For you see, I am a Jew.

 

We have no tree in the living room,

No presents underneath,

No ol' Saint Nick in our chimney,

And on our door no wreath.

 

Now my eight days are over,

My holidays are through,

But Merry Christmas nonetheless,

From me, the local Jew.

That you're a Jew

Doesn't matter to me

All that matters

Is the person, you see.

 

'cause here on this forum

We meet for guitars

It wouldn't really matter

If you came down from Mars.

 

So have a nice day

From me to you

Larry the Christian

To you the Jew.

I wrote one once that would have been a big hit (in my opinion). It was with a band called Legend. The singer was Tony Martin that went on to sing with Black Sabbath. I'd put it on here but I had my car stolen many years ago with all of my demo's etc in. Lost the lot. All I've got is a reel to reel tape. Never tried to see what's on it. I know there's a version of the song I'm on about on it. I recorded it with a Tom Scholz 'Rockman' straight into the desk.
