    LYRICS:

    I’ll write you a carol, it will have a Christmas theme
    It will be a Christmas anthem, jolly it will seem
    It will rally all the children to wish for better gifts
    And the jingle bells will jingle and boost morale throughout my shift

    I'll write you a carol and I hope you won't resent
    Because in your chimney stocking, you will find a new present
    So kids don't be upset, that it's time for me to go
    And so I say Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night

    Brand New Christmas Tree written by Joey Clift
    Produced and Mixed by Alec Sherrie
    Recorded at Seaward Studios 
    Vocals by Nick Gligor, Elizabeth Hayhurst
    Additional Instrumental Production by Luke Burba

    LYRICS:

    I'll be the tinsel hanging,
    Placed and thrown with the ornaments on an Evergreen
    With The Presents Underneath
    I'll be the warm oven that's making all the ginger bread
    While you sit there and hate on your fruit cake

    I’ll be the credit card that helps you afford a P S 4
    Christmas gifts make the register go Ka-Ching
    I'll be the hot chocolate that brings your favorite memories back as you're sitting there opening presents…
    opening presents...
    I'll be the magic corn and undo what gravity’s done to you...
    You won't have to strain to fly into the sky
    I'll be your big red coat buttoned up to keep out the snow
    While the sleigh goes up and you’ll say Ho Ho Ho

    I’m traveling so far and I’m giving all around
    A cookie in my mouth
    We'll fly over the sea and the kids will welcome me
    With a brand new Christmas Tree
    Where decorations change,
    I’ll bring you candy canes
    The Christmas Stockings Hang
    And needles cover ground
    Under our bare feet from this brand new Christmas Tree

    Brand new Christmas Tree
    Santa Is My Name
    HoOo oOo…

    Santa Is My Name
    HoOo oOo…

    Santa Is My Name
    HoOo oOo…

    This Workshop’s A Prison

    This Workshop’s A Prison

    Gift Up was produced by Local Business Comedy. 
    This Workshop’s A Prison written by Stephen Perlstein
    Produced and Mixed by Alec Sherrie
    Recorded at Seaward Studios 
    Vocals by Nick Gligor, Elizabeth Hayhurst
    Additional Instrumental Production by Luke Burba

    LYRICS:

    This workshop’s a prison
    And these children aren’t your friends
    Demanding thrills, gifts, twenty dollar bills
    And the wrappings are ripped and then gutted again
    And again

    There’s deers at the launch ramps, decorated wreaths
    And you may skate the grounds on fresh blades in blue knit gown
    But elves are not permitted to leave

    I know there’s a big world out there of colors more than red and green
    In our wrapping room late last night
    Bows were almost too bright to see
    And I know that it’s not a holiday if it happens every night
    Pretending there’s good will I’m scared of krampus
    When you’re building by candlelight

    What does it take to get egg nog in this place?

    What does it take, how long must I make?

    We Will Munch Gingerbreads

    We Will Munch Gingerbreads

    We Will Munch Gingerbreads written by Nick Gligor
    Produced and Mixed by Alec Sherrie
    Recorded at Seaward Studios 
    Vocals by Nick Gligor, Elizabeth Hayhurst
    Additional Instrumental Production by Luke Burba

    LYRICS:

    I've got a workshop with lots of toys
    Filling my sleigh up for good girls and boys
    And I'm not coming home
    Until Christmas is over
    and I’m skipping the midnight mass
    flying around the world for snacks
    And I'm ho’ing at the top of my lungs 
    Descending these reindeer onto some roof
    Some roof that isn’t mine

    And we will munch gingerbreads when the night is finally done
    Ho ho ho…

    I wanted to walk through a house with treats
    Unfortunately they had nothing to eat
    And all the gingerbreads were gone when I went to the store
    Because your parents just cannot bake, the cookies I eat at an alarming rate
    and my hunger won’t be put on hold, 
    So no gifts for you
    And that’s why kids get coal
    (And it won’t be silent night)

    And we will munch gingerbreads when the night is finally done
    Ho ho ho…
    And we will munch gingerbreads when the night is finally done
    Ho ho ho…
    And we will munch gingerbreads when the night is finally done
    Ho ho ho…
    And we will munch gingerbreads when the night is finally done
    Ho ho ho…

    And we will munch
    And we will munch

    Clark Griswold written by Stephen Perlstein
    Produced and Mixed by Alec Sherrie
    Recorded at Seaward Studios 
    Vocals by Nick Gligor, Elizabeth Hayhurst
    Additional Instrumental Production by Luke Burba

    LYRICS:

    I was shopping in a Chi-town mall looking for an Under-Gown when it struck me 
    That I've been waiting since March to find a tree that I’d cut down... like the movie 
    So I changed my plans, hopped into the family Station Wagon and then I called you
    "I need you to pretend that it's Christmas time again" you said “Do I need to?”

    I want so badly to believe that “it’s the truth, that Claus is real"
    And I want cheer in every word, an ornament and a blizzard

    I got a gift, a jelly of the month club card, I reached my limit!
    The eve it called for snow but it is clear today so I'm angry
    My brain had snapped and I yelled "drum roll on the street" and then yelled "hit it!"
    And I light you in a style that Clark Griswold would have admired (That movie’s classic)

    I want so badly to believe that “it’s the truth, that Claus is real"
    And I want cheer in every word, an ornament and a blizzard

    I know budgets are tight this year, but do you ever get the fear
    That you'll be kidnaped despite the yule I want my bonus I want a new pool.

    I want my bonus I want a new pool.

    LYRICS:

    I take a bite
    Of a cookie till there’s none in sight
    Santa’s feeling blue
    Day after Christmas and my job is through

    Ho ho ho ho….

    Kringle’s beard is white
    As the old reindeer refrain from flight
    Last night? The moon
    Now it’s eggnog and a sense of gloom

    Ho ho ho ho….

    I watch the children sift through their gifts on the twenty sixth
    And from here they can’t see I’m pissed
    The sad state of recycled gifts
    I watch the children sift through their gifts on the twenty sixth
    Calm down, they got their wish
    The sad state of recycled gifts
