Hark how the bells
(Bothersome bells)
All seem to say
Please go away
~
My schemes are near (Hum)
So you steer clear (bug)
Bitter and cold (Hum)
Scamps I shall scold (bug)
~
âHumbug! So long!â (Hum)
That is the song (bug)
With sour ring (Hum)
All despising. (bug)
~
A nasty leer
For all who near
My evil lair
All should beware
~
Oh how they hound
Raising the sound
And as they wail
My plains derail
~
Loudly they sing
Carols vexing
At them I leer,
So they steer clear!
Rowdy irksome prying noisy children
Lousy good for nothing noisy children
~
On on they send, (Hum)
On without end, (bug)
Their irksome tone (Hum)
To my abode (bug)
Carol of the Bells. I like that song for the urgency it conveys. Very useful when you make action Christmass stories, like A Very Olde Speech Christmass for instance.
Nice parody! :D
Thank you! I take great pride in the fact that every one of the lines in the parody version both rhymes with and has the same number of syllables as its counterpart in the original version.
