Challenge #20

Challenge Setter: Carlissa

Set on: 24/11/2020

Judge: Group Vote

Participants were challenged to write their own Christmas song by either adapting an existing song of any genre or writing their own. It doesn’t have to be the whole song, just a chorus is fine.

Nanny Di

Christmas Time

Mistletoe and wine,

Children singing christian rhymes

Nan's not fine 'cause she likes gin

And Keith forgot to buy some in

New year's coming

So Keith will be running

Out the door

Right to the store

Then nan will have

Some gin once more

Dale

Verse 1

It was Christmas in America

I thought that, it was just like Christmas

Hurry up and get here cause I have nowhere to stay

Pre-Chorus

A Christmas story told

But then it falls apart

Chorus

No Christmas Christmas

So I asked for your watch

So I could go make a Christmas machine

Verse 2

We took a ride last Christmas night

There was no room for your smiles

Go find something else to do

Oh, dearly wealthy we wish you a jolly Christmas

Pre-Chorus

Letter by letter, picture by picture

Christmas all over

Chorus

Bridge

Make me a woman of the world

Give me some little woman at the door

Chorus

HArry & Carlissa

Keith

The Naughty Elf

The Naughty Pixi felt left on the shelf.

She said, "I wish I was an elf"

I'd hide Nanny's gin and drink Harry's ale,

Then leave them a message, saying "Thank You, from Dale."

I'd get over to Emily's before she came back,

And paint her piano keys from white to black.

I'd go into Tan's studio and mix all her paints,

Then hide in the corner and hope that she faints.

I'd break into Tash's and hide Bozzy's food

Then hide in a corner and see what he chews.

I'd probably leave Keith alone because he's my favourite.

Emily

“I just wanna spend Christmas with you”

E major chords I, IV and V

Lyrics

Verse 1:

The mornings are frosty

my face bright and rosy

Christmas spirit all around

but the streets are now empty

in the year 2020

since they isolated the town

So long since i’ve seen you

there’s nothing left to do

to keep you off my mind

I miss all the fun

we’d create all day long

when we saw each other all the time

CHORUS

I just wanna spend Christmas with you

Been in lockdown for so long

Oh where has the time gone

I just wanna spend Christmas with you

Verse 2:

the nights growing longer

and we can’t get over

how quick the summer flew by

that’s the last time i saw you

i’ve got so much to tell you

i’ll call you we’ll talk through the night

putting up decorations

but all family celebrations

won’t be the same this year

if we can’t see our loved ones

and stand strong beside them

and tell them there’s nothing to fear

CHORUS

then modulate to F major

Bright Star

Didn't know what time it was, the moon was low oh oh

Mary leant back on the donkey oh oh oh

Joseph was leading them down a bumpy road, "lotta holes" he said

Then a small town came into view ooh ooh

They searched all inns for a room with a loo ooh ooh

But there was nothing and the "pop" her waters blew

There's a bright star shining in the sky

It's hanging over Bethlehem

It can be seen for miles and miles

There's a bright star shining in the sky

Three shepherds have been watching

And followed it from afar

They said "hey,"

"Lets go find the saviour"

"Lets go find the new king"

"He'll be laying in the hay"

They found a stable it would have to do ooh ooh

Mary gave birth among cows and donkey too ooh ooh

She had a sweet boy who'd be worshipped his life through

Then came an angel, all around was bright

He's the son of god, its a miracle tonight

They named him Jesus, he was bathed in holy light

There's a bright star shining in the sky

It's hanging over Bethlehem

It can be seen for miles and miles

There's a bright star shining in the sky

Three kings travel towards it

With Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh

They said "Hark,"

"Lets go find the saviour"

"Lets go find the new king"

"He'll be laying in the hay"
