Here we come a wassailing...

20051220_lyricsheet.jpg Most of the year you restrict your singing to the shower or the car. Belting out your favorite songs or musical classics like "Surry With A Fringe On The Top", you listen to your voice, echoing nicely off the walls of the shower, and think I actually sound pretty good. Well, now that Christmas has come, you can test your skills in front of a real audience. This weekend, before Christmas Eve dinner or after opening presents under the tree, grab some like-minded friends and head out to entertain your neighbors (or, if you're nervous, someone else's neighbors) with heartfelt renditions of Christmas favorites like Silent Night and I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas. If your neighborhood isn't conducive to caroling, head to the nearest retirement or convalescent home and brighten the residents' day by getting them to join in on the fun.

I have never heard of "I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas"!! It sounds fabulous!

Of course most neighborhoods are multi-cultural these days, so add some Chanukah songs for a change of pace.

Anybody know any good songs for our other neighbors (say, the folks in the nearby Indian restaurant)?
