MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYBODY!!!!

I hope you're all having the most wonderful of days. The Shan kids didn't wake TOO early -- they slept in until 07.00. I was actually awake before them, as I woke at 06.15 and couldn't go back to sleep after that! We're just about to sit down to have our Christmas dinner with my parents, one of my aunts and her daughter -- I'm sure it will be a lovely family meal. I might even treat myself to a glass or two of bubbly and wine -- after all, I've been a good boy this year!!! :-)

Over the years I've adapted some traditional (and recent) Christmas songs, to fit them in with my body of work. Here are a few that you might like to sing this yuletide, to keep yourself amused! Once again, I hope you all have an amazing day -- and don't eat TOO much turkey!!!

ZOMBIE BABY (to the tune of Santa Baby)
Zombie baby, slip some brains under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Zombie baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Zombie baby, a glass of blood please for the undead, light red
We'll drink a toast to those we've eaten
Zombie baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Zombie cutie, I really like the brains of those who bleed, indeed
Make them fresh and extra tasty
Zombie cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Zombie baby, the only things I fear in life are dreams, and screams
When you attack me on an airplane
Zombie baby, come hurry down the chimney tonight
Zombie baby, don't you think I'd make a yummy, mummy
Together we could be so happy
So zombie baby, hurry down the chimney tonight


JINGLE BELLS
Jingle Bells, Murlough smells, Evra can lick his nose,
Vancha March spits a lot, and Evanna wears ropes as clothes.
Jingle bells, in vampire hell, every demon carries a stake,
(They don't know that bad souls in fact go to a dark lake.)
Dashing through the fields, on a wild vampaneze hunt,
Darren at the rear, Mr Crepsley at the front,
Lots of twists and turns, who to fear and trust?
Only one thing is for sure -- It's kill the Lord or bust!
Oh, Jingle bells, all will be well, if they kill the Lord,
But if they lose, two will die, and the vampire clan will fall.
Oh, jingle bells, who can tell what fearsome depths they'll delve?
The only way you can find out is to buy and read book twelve!


UP A CHIMNEY
When Murlough got stuck up a chimney, he began to shout,
"You girls and boys will make lots of noise once I wriggle out!
I'll rip off your skin, smear you with jam, I'll gobble your insides down too!"
When Murlough got out of the chimney, boo-hoo! Boo-hoo! Boo-hoo!


COMING TO TOWN
You better watch out, you better be sly,
You better be brave, I'm telling you why,
The vampaneze are coming to town.
They feed when you are sleeping, they drain your body dry,
They suck all your blood from your veins
And it won't help if you cry.
Oh, You better watch out, you better be sly,
You better be brave, I'm telling you why,
The vampaneze are coming to town.
They'll stick a big straw in you, and slurp your red blood down,
So if you don't want to wind up a corpse
You'd best get out right now!
Oh, You better watch out, you better be sly,
You better be brave, I'm telling you why,
The vampaneze are coming to town.
