Had to face the facts today... the balloons from September were done.

DEAD KENNEDYS - "Shrink"

If only people could shrink
Our world wouldn't be so overcrowded
Bring ourselves down to size
There'd be so much more food to go 'round

Why don't we build a machine
With all the know-how of the industries
We put a man on the moon
On earth we'll need more room to breathe real soon
Oh

Drink your vaccine and let's shrink
And bring your poodle so it doesn't eat us
The roads will be so wide
No traffic jams when we're half a foot tall
Bring what you need down here
We'll shrink it all by microwave
Don't wanna die like dinosaurs
We'll have enough resources to go round

Oh

So now you've made the big shrink
Meanwhile we'll keep acting big
We well-bred beautiful people
Who says we have to go too?
Cops and Mason businessmen
Were exempted from the ovens
As if you weren't already.
The rest of you are all our termites now

Oh

I love the holidays. I love finding perfect gifts all year long in anticipation of the holidays. I do not love wrapping gifts - in fact I loathe it. In an attempt to get through this dreaded part of the holidays as quickly as possible, I binge wrapped 40+ packages tonight. eek. glitter everywhere!

SAVE FERRIS - "Christmas Wrapping"

Ho Ho Ho woke up this morning with a scary feeling
Realized it was November first
Christmas oh my god its nearing
What am I to do I said
Then I covered up my head
Prayed for sleep for two more months intill this holy mess is over
Wasn't that lucky I turned on the TV
Beanie Babies on the news
Biggest selling gift this year
What's a tired Jew to do?
So TV off, Try to escape, Called my Friend from Silver lake
Said to meet on Fairfax for some some coffee and a cougal

Talk about our fear and dread of tinsel lights and parties
Suddenly like a bad dream
Fairfax was transformed into a holiday paradise everywhere was Hanukah
Shiny Sparkly blue and white isn't this a little soon
I got up quick ran to the mall
Before my pain got any worse
What a stupid thing to do
I'm a sitting duck in Santa's zoo
Suddenly I couldn't walk
I couldn't breath I couldn't move
Children running everywhere
Screaming tis this season

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I think Ill miss this one this year
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I think Ill miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I think Ill miss this one this year
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I think Ill miss this one this year

December first the pains have gone
Thought about Adams Hanukah song
He forgot to mention me
Thats ok his song was better
Photograph on Santa's lap
Now over my fear of shopping
Bought gifts for all my goiant friends
One for each, not eight
Sorting cards from all my friends
Sweet of them to take the time
One pile for all the Christmas cards from friends who just don?t get it yet
Hanukkah day on overload I just cannot stop eating
I have so many lackey that my tush is going to explode

All I walk it off and so I walk to the Kabala Center just to kill some time I
thought I spotted Madonna
Christmas Day Hanukkahs done
Woke up feeling funny
Maybe its cuz I lost half my hair and I have spent all of my money
Whats a Jew to do today?
LA is a ghost town
Looks just like another year of movies and Chinese food
Then suddenly I laughed and laughed and caught on to that was happening
Christmas magic brought this tale to a very happy ending

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
I couldnt miss this one this year
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I couldnt miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I couldnt miss this one this year
Merry Christmas Merry Christmas
But I couldnt miss this one this year
