Non-Carol of the Day.

Do you know that one person in your house that instead of listening to holiday music like the rest of the family, plays their regular music throughout December? And most likely that music is rather irritating? Mostly because it's the opposite of what you normally listen to, but especially because they insist on singing along, horribly off-key? Yeah. That's what's going on in my life. Carols are a welcome relief. Today the carol of the day is the opposite of that music, because it is a classic:



Carol of the Day:

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go
Take a look in the five-and-ten,
Glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in ev'ry store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the holly that will be
On your own front door.

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel,
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.
