Some ghosts from past Christmas tunes
Over the past couple months, we have addressed the unwokeness of the NFL and football in general. Despite my best efforts, they have made no discernible changes. So today, I will attempt to get a bit of woke action on some lyrics of traditional Christmas songs. Pay attention you song writers. Here are a few suggestions.
Most everyone knows about the tune Santa Claus is Coming to Town. Maybe he’s coming for a town in the America of the 1950’s but not for 2022.
First of all Santa means saint and if a child is being warned about a guy named Saint Claus, this dude is probably not very saintly as we know the description.
Claus seems to be a name very close to the name Klaus and if you know anything about Klaus Shwab from the World Economic Forum, that should make you squirm. He’s the guy who smiles when he says ,” you will own nothing and be happy.”And you might want to keep an eye out for his elfin buddy Noah Harari who is even more frightening.
The song goes on to warn about the dangers of pouting. Well, one minute into the nightly news may present quite a challenge for anybody not to pout.
Santa’s “making a list and checking it twice.” The list is naming those who have been naughty and not nice. With some recent revelations it appears that Santa is wasting his time. He could go to Twitter, the DOJ, and the FBI. Apparently, they’ve got loads and loads of list already prepared.
“He knows you when you’re sleeping and he knows when you’re awake.” So obviously Santa and his elves are following you on social media along with other private correspondence. I would say that the elves may not be too cute and innocent anymore.
“He knows when you’ve been bad or good.” No surprise there. “So be good for goodness sake.” Lot’s of luck kiddies of all ages. What is good in the year 2022 and what is bad? It’s all very fluid you know, like good is bad and bad is good.
So much for Santa. Let’s now focus on Frosty. Who doesn’t love the wonderful Frosty The Snowman? Well I imagine there are several environmental groups that could find objection to his presence.
If you’ll recall he has a corncob pipe and two eyes made of coal. Wow, he has woke violations up the old carrot nose galore.
Frosty smokes a pipe! What kind of example is that for children by filling his body and the air around him with deadly pollutants? Get the hair dryer and melt that binary “man” before he destroys the planet.
Frosty has eyes made of coal. Are you kidding me? According to a certain political figure,, we only have 10 years to live as it is, no less a snowman promoting coal adding to the danger.
Frosty knew the sun was hot that day so he wanted to have some fun before he melted away. With global climate change, just think of how hot the sun will be then. He would melt before he could even have the hat placed on his head to magically dance with life in his snowy body.
Frosty had to hurry on his way but he told the kids, “he’ll be back some day.” No way Frosty. Not unless we get an electric car in every driveway and a windmill in every back yard. This place is getting hot!
Thumpety, thump, thump, That’s a sound, kids, that frosty will make no more. Frosty will never be again if the world doesn’t have every cellphone powered by windmill. Make your choice kids. It either Frosty or fossil fuels. You can’t have both.
