A Chicago Christmas Carol
John Dillinger had a gold gat
And wanted one rat-a-tat-tat
But Santa knew
Rittenhouse, too,
And thought we had enough of that!...

and of that quartet of wondrous ghosts
the Ghost of Christmas Presents is the one I like the most!...

Heard Trump Sing Christmas Carol
Heard Trump Sing Christmas Carol

Had heard Trump singing Christmas Carol;
Remembers when he was over a big barrel;
Hair did fade;
Changes made;
No longer imperil when he became sterile.

In Peril Sing Christmas Carol
In Peril Sing Christmas Carol

Here is what to when you are in peril;
Sing to yourself a nice Christmas Carol;
You will be relieved,
Then Jesus received,
And now no longer will be over a barrel.

Church Had Us Over Barrel
Church Had Us Over Barrel

Church really had us over barrel,
Heard choir sing Christmas carol;
Terrible sound,
All around;
Ended up in danger and imperil.

Imperil means to bring into peril
or endanger.

Forgot to Sing Christmas Carol

Forgot to sing a Christmas Carol
And now he has us over a barrel
Were always in great doubt
Would ever help us out
All of our lives are in peril.

Santa Apparel
Santa Apparel

Once found myself over a barrel
Did decide to sing Christmas Carol
Have heard if you love to be living
God said you should start giving
Learned how to wear Santa apparel.

Interesting. Limerick of course.

Lor was conducting a Christmas carol
While standing on a high stool in our hall
Swaying hands with her baton 
Faced front, bit sideways and soon
Stool swung for her slow exhibition-fall

Here comes Santy Claus, 
Here comes Santy Claus, 
Bringing you Santy Claus pain. 
Vicious old bastard 
with sharp-hoofed reindeer 
pullin' on the reins. 

Bells are ringing, 
children screaming, 
all is scary with blight. 
Say your prayers 
or hang by your hair 
cuz Santy Claus comes tonight....

Once had been over a barrel
Did decide to sing Christmas Carol
Heard that best way to be living
Is learn from God art of giving
How to start wearing Santa apparel.

A Christmas Message
A Christmas carol so joyful and sweet,
heavenly voices such a festive treat.

The birth of a very special baby boy 
named Emmanuel. The light of the 
world, the word made flesh. True love 
upon the earth.

A heavenly message our saviour is here,
who shall lead us back to our Father.
Forgiveness is here blot out our trespasses....

Christmas Carol
As we sing the Christmas Carol
wish for the simplest gifts
give the best smile
that it may satisfy the weary heart

Wish for the simplest gifts
Ask nothing in return
That it may satisfy the weary heart
As the song near to an end

Ask nothing in return
Give the best smile
As the song near to an end
As we sing the Christmas Carol...

Trump and Terrible Barrel
Trump and Terrible Barrel

Trump can hardly sing Christmas carol;
While his whole life has been in imperil,
And a lost cause,
With small, paws;
Someone even said his voice was sterile.

Jim Horn

We have heard another wise crack;
Trump then referred to token black,
And usual style;
Only one compile;
His house is shack with smokestack....

Dream Did Find In Field
dream did find in field
to us always had appealed
with much love was sealed

we had been balking
reach point where there is talking
for friend stalking

life was imperil
when we sang christmas carol
screech sounded sterile

issue was skirting
when my back had been hurting
which i was blurting

his name was Cecil
who we heard was a weasel
art work on easel...

Christmas Carol
Christmas Carol's
On the streets again
Turning tricks
While the clock ticks
Towards the saviour's day

No seat by the fire,
No pies and mulled wine
She pulls up her knickers
And steps back in line

A fat man arrives
To empty his sacks
But this sadistic 60-year-old
Is no Santa Claus

He's Old Nick instead
And Carol gets
One hell of a beating
As her festive gift...

Premium Member He Speaks Kindness
The chickadees need a little Christmas mirth
Stated an empathetic kind elf named McGirth
He decorated a tiny tree for them.
They accepted it and sang a Christmas carol hymn.

How do you know it was a carol? His brother said.
He speaks chickadee, smirked his cousin Fred.
He speaks kindness, stated his mother, Buttercup.
His heart is in the right place, he brings everyone up....

Silver Bells
Church bells announce the Christmas season, 
as shoppers dash down city streets.
Upon deaf ears and deeds undone, 
church bells announce the Christmas season!
Their silver curves outshine all reason –
Store lights, full moon, sky’s starry feats!
Church bells announce the Christmas season
as shoppers dash down city streets.

Premium Member A Christmas Callgirl
Everyone has gone home
Where ever home is
The city is bare
Only me
And the call girl left
We share our secrets
In silence
Comrades in despair
The cold winter chills us all
So we two find comfort
In a passing moment
She kisses her past
I kiss my desires
Our tongues kiss our dreams
A Christmas carol plays in the background
Snow begins to fall
Madeline must now go
On another call...

Tom's Christmas Carol #2
"Oh, Hoely Sight!!!"

Oh, holey sight,
Tom's butt exposed,
and shining.....
It was the night
of the Midnight Beer walk

The P.J.'s were calling....
"Get thee a sewing kit...."
The bed was warm....
Tom's P.J. pants part slowly falling

It was the night of
our dear neighbor's mirth...
for the window was well open
And the sight of Tom's butt...
would'a made a mute start talkin'........
