Hi forum friends. Decided to post my stab at a humorous Christmas song. Unfortunately, I'm not very good at singing or mixing those Bob Seger type rockers. Hope you enjoy the tune anyway! Take care all. Greg

Rudolf's Butt

I got a shelf full of trohies for champion of the reindeer games
I got a sterling reputation, no need for droppin names
But Dasher is my uncle on my mother's side
And Blitzen is my dad
I got as good a pedigree as a reindeer ever had

I've made the cut every Christmas eve since I was five years old
I can hang at any altitude, never squawk about the cold
You could ask what this has gotten me, what is my reward?
Well, Lemme just tell you what
One long-[*****] flight just starin' at Rudolf's butt

The old man got so paranoid one foggy Christmas eve
Ever since that night the whole trip blows
Rudolf's rise to stardom's almost too much to believe
Hero status, for that lame, defective nose

I used to love to see the stars laid out, and gaze upon those Northern Lights
But the trip is now less glamorous with less dramatic sights
It somehow takes the magic from the whole affair
The thrill of speedin' 'long through space
To see that reindeer's backside near the front side of my face

I told the old man get some flashlights, we can strap them on to the sleigh
Give us all the light were ever gonna need to find our way
We can dump that loser reindeer who barely learned to fly
We'll have everything we need
Lose the dead weight and get this outfit up to speed

But it seems that Santa's took a shine to Rudolf's shiny nose
So I guess I will remain stuck in this rut
For the sake of boys and girls who's toys depend on us
Guess I will get use
To takin' this abuse
Get beyond the point of carin'
That I'll be spendin' my life starin'
At Rudolf's butt
