A Scrumptious Boistrous Christmas

(Sing to the tune of "Holly Jolly Christmas) Have a scrumptious boistrous Christmas. Party hearty. Ho Ho Ho! Move your hips, then wet your lips and find some mistletoe! Have a scrumptious boistrous Christmas. Let the rum and egg nog flow. Get rambunctious. Have a scrumptious boistrous Christmas. Ho! Ho! Wild nights and snowball fights and feasting all month long. Pass me more cookies, please. Don’t care if it is wrong! Have a scrumptious boistrous Christmas. Party hearty. Ho Ho Ho! Get rambunctious. Have a scrumptious boistrous Christmas. Ho! Ho!

As always your lyrical re-writes are spot on and so much fun. If I remember rightly, wasn't your very first Soup post a Christmas song re-write? You really get into the spirit of this song, and the fun words 'rambunctious', 'scrumptious' and 'boisterous' work perfectly together. I can just imagine Burl Ives singing your words! Merry Christmas, dear friend.
