(Here's something to get those chestnuts poppin'! )

Dance Dance Christmas
By: Noah Eaton
12/19/06

“Sing choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens
Of heaven above
Glory to God,
Glory in the highest!”

Oh, come, all ye faithful,
light the world with miracles and tinsel,
groovin’ with Jolly Ol’ Saint Nicholas,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.

Let’s gather under the mistletoe,
galloping all the way to the North Pole,
dynamite ravin’ in the Yule Tide,
with some mince meat pie and a sip of mulled wine,
we’ve got the spunk of ten lords a leaping,
wassailing away like a merry apple tree,
warming the world like Good King Wenceslas,
wishing the whole world a merry Christmas.

Oh, come, all ye faithful,
light the world with miracles and tinsel,
groovin’ with Jolly Ol’ Saint Nicholas,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.
Oh, come, move your feet to epiphany,
through universal polyphony,
groovin’ from Bethlelem to the isthmus,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.

Poppin’ like chestnuts on an open fire,
your feet are glowin’ like a young church choir,
staying cool like the Gingerbread Man,
dancing doubles on a peppermint dance pad,
tip toein’ through the tulips like Tiny Tim,
long after we catch the sight of three sailing ships,
“how grand it feels to click your heels,
and join in the fun of the jigs and reels.”

Oh, come, all ye faithful,
light the world with miracles and tinsel,
groovin’ with Jolly Ol’ Saint Nicholas,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.
Oh, come, move your feet to epiphany,
through universal polyphony,
groovin’ from Bethlelem to the isthmus,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.

“Sing choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens
Of heaven above
Glory to God,
Glory in the highest!”

(Bounce it like Bumbles now!)

Ho Ho Ho, you know how Santa moves so fast,
the secret’s singin’ to the rhythm to seek that Black Flag,
ho ho ho, light the night like the Bethlelem Star,
sleigh the world over with some DDR!

Oh, come, all ye faithful,
light the world with miracles and tinsel,
groovin’ with Jolly Ol’ Saint Nicholas,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.
Oh, come, move your feet to epiphany,
through universal polyphony,
groovin’ from Bethlelem to the isthmus,
jingle bell rockin’ this Dance Dance Christmas.

Dear Noah, your words are an enthusiastic twirl that captures the reader and makes him sing.

Very beautiful!

Love and Merry Christmas to you!
