The Lyrics
Below Average Dave has every intention of keeping his parodies free, however financially it is difficult to do so without some assistance. I have a brand new radio show which will air live on 365 coming January of 2011, this album is to commemorate that show and to raise money for costs which are going to be hard for me to pay without fan support. Enjoy my first ever full length parody album. For a hard copy version, please let me know you are interested and I'll tell you how to get one. They will eventually be posted to Amazon.com and the like, at that time you can get it there!
I'll have a cheap Christmas without you
I'll save some green just living with no boo
How I'd love my big bed,
oh if you would just leave
It'll be so great dear,
if you'd just let me be
Then no more posh diamonds you're wanting
And no more hot dress trends you're flaunting
Though you'll say I'm not right,
Spend just one night with my wife,
and you'll want a 'lone 'lone 'lone 'lone Christmas
I'll see life in new light,
if you'll leave me tonight,
Yeah I want a cheap, cheap cheap cheap Christmas
I'll save some green just living with no boo
How I'd love my big bed,
oh if you would just leave
It'll be so great dear,
if you'd just let me be
Then no more posh diamonds you're wanting
And no more hot dress trends you're flaunting
Though you'll say I'm not right,
Spend just one night with my wife,
and you'll want a 'lone 'lone 'lone 'lone Christmas
I'll see life in new light,
if you'll leave me tonight,
Yeah I want a cheap, cheap cheap cheap Christmas

Good luck with your Christmas album Dave. I was hoping for a greatest hits album but this is probably the better bet for people who want funny songs for Christmas (I for example have bought a Redneck Christmas album just to hear some silly Christmas songs). I'm currently broke or I would help you out pal.
Thanks Matty---well the other songs will probably be added to albums of sorts eventually, so you may get your wish--all my albums will be available as a hard copy via my site in one of MANY new features the site has coming. . .some of which are already active, hopefully all will be by January
(Christmas) Nice job Dave, this is really funny. You're recording made it twice as funny. Solid! Good luck with your album :)!
Sir Dave, ~Le MiseryRumRunner~ this does describe the current state of the US economy quite well, Sir !
(Christmas) I'm definitely having one of these, this year, as i just got laid off 2 weeks ago(AFTER 7 YEARS)!! Good luck, and hope that wealth comes to you, Dave!!
XMAS- in 14 lines, you have managed to write one of the greatest Christmas parodies I have ever read! Great work Dave!
Good job here, this could be a perennial favorite, like a good Christmas song should be! :)
xmas- he he you know, I'll half to catch up lon looking for recordings with os's I know. I sang 545 for you here.
Short and sweet, should work very well with your album. I can see myself singing along with this too :)
