My christmas cold is full and strong this year. Bring on the booze to kill it. And I shall take this opportunity to praise Lemsip 12 hour slow release capsules.

I left some old chicken legs out for the wolverine-thingie living in my yard. Figured he'd like a gift too.

So is beer, cigarettes, and sneaking a joint with your cousin on the way to the mini mart to pick up more beer. Or maybe that's just my redneck family. Anyway, it's kinda fun.

Mom got drunk and Dad got drunk
at our Christmas party
We were drinking champagne punch
and homemade eggnog
Little sister brought her new boyfriend
He was a Mexican
We didn't know what to think of him
until he sang Feliz Navidad, Feliz Navidad

Brother Ken brought his kids with him
The three from his first wife Lynn
And the two identical twins
from his second wife Mary Nell
Of course he brought his new wife Kay
Who talks all about AA
Chain smoking while the stereo plays
Noel, Noel, The First Noel

Carve the Turkey
Turn the ball game on
Mix margaritas when the eggnog's gone
Send somebody to the Quickpak Store
We need some ice and an extension chord
A can of bean dip and some Diet Rites
A box of tampons, some Marlboro Lights
Hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the family

Fred and Rita drove from Harlingen
I can't remember how I'm kin to them
But when they tried to plug their motor home in
They blew our Christmas lights
Cousin David knew just what went wrong
So we all waited out on our front lawn
He threw a breaker and the lights came on
And we sang Silent Night
Oh Silent Night
(Oh Holy Night)

Carve the turkey turn the ball game on
Make Bloody Mary's cause we all want one
Send somebody to the Stop 'N Go
We need some celery and a can of fake snow
A bag of lemons and some Diet Sprites
A box of tampons, some Salem Lights
hallelujah everybody say cheese
Merry Christmas from the Family

*sniff*

I miss my family.

Every time I've seen Robert Earl Keen he always sings that and everybody goes YEE-HAW, even though I've never seen him anytime near Christmas.

Right now I'm drinking bellinis surrounded by little gifties while the wife and kid take an xmas nap. Life could be worse. (Like in 3 hours when I have to go to work...) Happy merry.

I guess that's because even outside of Christmas, it's an accurate portrait of a lot of Southerner's crappy, lovable families. I like the list of items that they have to pick up at the Stop N Go. This is not a mystical, magical Christmas, it's just... you... the family.

― Paunchy Stratego (kenan), Sunday, 25 December 2005 21:49 (twenty years ago)

I really really love Robert Earl Keen, although I know I'd have to go to the US to see him live... you don't think he'd ever head to the South coast of England again, do you? Bigger Piece of Sky's one of my all-time favourite LPs, and Corpus Christi Bay's one of my all-time favourite songs.

Anyway yeah. Happy Christmas to y'all.
