To the tune of: "Deck the Halls"
Deck the halls with Jim Ed's colleagues,
Fa la la la la, la la la la,
Lanpher, Eichten, and Dale Connelly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
On at dawn and through the morning.
Blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah
If something's happening, they'll give you warning,
Fa la la la blah, la blah blah blah.

Mr Sports and Mr action,
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Will name a Viking who's in traction,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Listen for Katherine's peels of laughter,
Ha ha ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha,
Gary's "politicos" won't be long after,
Min-ne-sota law, law law law law.

Listeners write and phone the station
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Sharing views from all generations
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Now the year is rushing past us.
Go go go, too much snow, wah wah wah
But MPR is still there for us.
Ooh la la la la. La la la la.

Robin Saunders, Ottawa, Canada


To the tune of: "Deck the Halls"
Deck the Malls with lots of shoppers,
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Tis the time we all go bonkers,
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Now we empty all our wallets,
Fa la la la la la, la la la
Going home with empty pockets,
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Hazen Markoe, St. Paul, MN


To the tune of: "Deck the Halls"
Minnesota Sure Is Freezin'
Burrza Burrza Burr-za Burr Burr Burr
It's What Ya Get At Christmas Season
Burrza Burrza Burr-za Burr Burr Burr
Santa's Sled Must Have A Heater
Burrza-burr Burrza-burr Burr Burr Burr
Or Else He'd Have A Frozen Seater
Burza Burrza Burr-za Burr Burr Burr

Chris Logan, Minneapolis, MN


To the tune of: "O Christmas Tree"
With love for all, and world-wide peace,
I hear the spirits calling.
The time has come, my friends to say,
Its time to end this longing.
The world rejoice, but all as one,
With memories here, our sadness gone.
Be still, but now, with outstretched palms,
We'll keep the world from falling.

Brooke Larsen, Greeley, CO


To the tune of: "Deck the Halls"
Grandma bought more decorations
Fa La La La La La La La La
Boxes piled up at each station
Fa La La La La La La La La
Lots of Angels soon descendin'
Fa La La La La La La La La
Grandpa thinks that he's in heaven
Fa La La La La La La La La

Now the work that lies before us
Fa La La La La La La La La
The neighborhood cannot ignore us
Fa La La La La La La La La
Balls of lights are quite a treasure
Fa La La La La La La La
Christmas tree's we never measure
Fa La La La La La La La La

Oh, the wonder of the season
Fa La La La La La La La La
Still I wish it was'nt freezin'
Fa La La La La La La La La
Whatta rush now lets get crackin'
Fa La La La La La La La La
All this stuff we'll soon be packin'
Fa La La La La La La La La

David Devine, East Springfield, PA


To the tune of: "O Christmas Tree"
A snow flake falls, another too
I think its starting now
oh wait a second, I hear a plow
the mayhem seems never ending

there goes one now to the left
another slides to the right
car after car, I hate the snow
why did I ever move here?

Jordan Marshall, Houghton, MI


To the tune of: "O Christmas Tree"
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree,
I really feel sorry about thee;
they cut you off,
and put you in...
and after while...
they'll throw you out.
Oh Christmas tree, of Christmas tree,
I really feel sorry about thee.

Ruben Soruco, Minneapolis, MN
