1940 Version:
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know.
Where the treetops glisten,
And children listen,
To hear reindeer in the snow.
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas.
With every Christmas card I write.
May your days be merry and bright,
And may all your Christmases be white.
2009 Version:
[With apologies to Irving Berlin.]
I’m bracing for a light Christmas,
And trying not to have a fit.
All my dollars have lessened,
Ole’ Bernie’s imprisoned,
A crook who piled on the ________.
I’m bracing for a light Christmas,
No pricey Christmas cards to write.
May your days be wary, no blight,
And may future Christmases not bite.
Merry Christmas Everyone!
