Would you believe? They wrote this as a joke 30 years ago, and it's been a hit ever since.
They really put the 'ass' in 'Class' and it's still on the list of most popular Christmas Songs. How you gonna keep 'em down on the farm after they've seen Nashville?
Atheists don't celebrate Christmas, because there isn't any in their church. They celebrate the ancient festival of Saturnalia, from December 17th to the 23rd. There's feasting and revelry, songs and dancing, sacrifices to the god Saturn, and the courts are closed so there can be no official declarations of war. An ancestor (or incestor) of Martha Stewart prepared the menu for the feasting, and one of Lawrence Welk's wunnerful, wunnerful ancestors arranged the music for dancing. Costumes are optional - wear 'em if you got 'em, but both shirts and skins are permitted. Many of the traditions of this ancient festival have been incorporated into the more modern substitute called 'Christmas'.
They don't make m' like that anymore....Hahaha
