Summer or Christmas Song Parody Poetry Contest

Song chosen - No.2 Jingle Bell Rock

Summertime, summertime, summertime bop Come why not to the summertime hop Movin’ n’ groovin’ dancers everywhere Wearing flowers in their hair. Summertime, summertime, summertime bop Boppin’ around the clock till one drops Swingin’ and swayin’ havin’ a great time Until midnight chimes. For young hearts it’s a brill time To bop away all day Summertime’s a dreamtime For gathering friends along the way. Boy meets girl and girl meets boy As billowin’ breeze blows Romance fills the air As the summertime flows. On your feet, to the beat, dance in the street Give it all you have got Rotate those hips, do the jive and the twist Maybe try a fox trot. For that’s summertime Yes that’s summertime That’s the summertime bop.
