A Simple Kind Of Christmas
Well we’re creeping up on Christmas
My favourite time of year
I confess that I’m still searching
For that Christmas kind of cheer
The Feeling of enchantment
We felt when we were kids
When magic things would happen
‘Cause our parents said they did
Now I’m worrying about money
All to no avail
‘Cause the only thing I want this year
Is not for sale
(Chorus)
A Simple Kind Of Christmas
In a complicated time
To lose all our big worries
In the little joys we’ll find
A simple kind of Christmas
This year
Remember when we gathered
To sing and talk and laugh
Now we keep our distance
And give thanks for what we have
If we can’t be together
I’ll smooch you through a screen
And instead of silly sugar plums
Dream away COVID-19
And though we may be parted
And feeling all kinds of stressed out
That’s just one more reason
For talking about
(Chorus)
A Simple Kind Of Christmas
In a complicated time
To lose all our big worries
In the little joys we’ll find
A simple kind of Christmas
This year
Let’s find a way to share some love
With people who need it more
I think I might have read somewhere
That’s what Christmas is for
Before we end this simple song
We’ll simply let you know
This too shall pass
And we’ll see you at a show
Until then please stay safe and have yourself
(chorus)
A Simple Kind Of Christmas
In a complicated time
To lose all our big worries
In the little joys we’ll find
A simple kind of Christmas
A simple kind of Christmas
A simple kind of Christmas
A simple kind of Christmas
A simple kind of Christmas
This year

The Grinch’s Lament (The Who Inside of Me)
Music and lyrics by Daniel Jordan
Way down in the village, all asleep in their beds
I sneak down to pillage, the good dreams from their heads
Why should they be happy when I’m so sad alone?
Why should they be happy
They hang up their stockings, they put up the tree
All smiling and talking, but never to me
Why should they be happy when I’m so sad alone?
Why should they be happy
All the Who’s down in Whoville who know nothing of evil
Are evil cuz they just don’t see, the Who inside of me
I hear sleigh bells ringing, I smell the roast beast
And all of that singing, I can’t stand in the least
Why should they be happy when I’m so sad alone?
Why should they be happy
All the Who’s down in Whoville who know nothing of evil
Are evil cuz they just don’t see, the Who inside of me
It could be I’m lonely, it cold be the only
Love I’ve ever had, has run off with the lad
Who use to tease me, love is never easy
So ill hide here in my cave, I’ve never been too brave
All the who’s who of Whoville dont see
No the who’s who of Whoville dont see
All the who’s who of Whoville, who nothing of evil dont see
They dont see, the Who inside of me
