Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.


She'd been drinkin' too much egg nog,
And we'd begged her not to go.
But she'd left her medication,
So she stumbled out the door into the snow.


When they found her Christmas mornin',
At the scene of the attack.
There were hoof prints on her forehead,
And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back.


Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.


Now were all so proud of Grandpa,
He's been takin' this so well.
See him in there watchin' football,
Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle.


It's not Christmas without Grandma.
All the family's dressed in black.
And we just can't help but wonder:
Should we open up her gifts or send them back?

Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

Now the goose is on the table
And the pudding made of fig.
And a blue and silver candle,
That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.

I've warned all my friends and neighbours.
Better watch out for yourselves."
They should never give a license,
To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve.
You can say there's no such thing as Santa,
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

To the tune of "Jingle Bells"

Pada snieg, pada snieg, leje granatami
A Mikolaj dostal w leb, lezy pod saniami!

Polish and Russian are similar....I can understand most of what you said except for "leje granatami" and "leb".
I'm guessing leje granatami means lieing in chunks?

Very good, granaty=grenades, instrumental case=granatami.Leje=it's raining. Łeb=skull Now you understand the song Smile

Pada snieg, pada snieg,
Wala sie balwanki.
Kurwa mac, kurwa mac,
Ktos zajebal sanki.

Renifery to frajery
Ciagna Mikolaja,
A Mikolaj jest pedalem
Ciagnie je za jaja.

It's lyrics to a somewhat humerous song.

Egg nog is milk with raw eggs, sugar and ginger.

I don't know if I'm ever ready for Christmas. I always seem to get depressed the closer it gets to Christmas.

I think ppl start celebrating it way to early...I mean some ppl put up lights right after Halloween..that's like 2 months in advance =(
I would usually be annoyed by now cause of all the christmas stuff on TV and radio(even at stores)...but I haven't been watching or listening to either lately cause of exams so I'm not.

Right, thanks, Mark. I'm gonna try to make a nog tonight. It seems good. Think Christmas as holiday with no pressure. Everybody in the north hemisphere will be around the fire. Here, in the south hermisphere, we'll be around the sea. Don't eat to much. Take a glass of champagne, kiss everyone you like and wait one week for the Happy New Year.

Good, Dr. Fauste. When your company send you to his Chemical Plant, here, in São Paulo, come to visit me. It will be my honour. About martial arts, I can explain to you that everything started with japanese people. We have about 400.000 japs (with sons, grand sons, grand grand sons, etc), living in São Paulo. That's why we have good judo fighters, some sumo fighters, jiu-jitsu fighters, aikido fighters, etc. And also baseball. About 90% of the players of Brazilian National Baseball Team are guys from japanese families. Now the coreans who live in São Paulo are teaching tae kwo do to brazilians fighters. They are learning very quickly.

"Where Are You Christmas"

Where are you Christmas
Why can't I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can't I hear music play

My world is changing
I'm rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too

Where are you Christmas
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I'm not the same one
See what the time's done
Is that why you have let me go

Christmas is here
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh

If there is love in your heart and your mind
You will feel like Christmas all the time

I feel you Christmas
I know I've found you
You never fade away
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love

Where are you Christmas
Fill your heart with love

The Chimney Song
by Bob Rivers Comedy Corp

There's something stuck up in the chimney
And I don't know what it is,
But it's been there all night long.
Well, I waited up for Santa all Christmas Night
But he never came and it don't seem right.
And there's something stuck up in the chimney
And it doesn't make a sound, But I wish you a Merry Christmas.

There's something stuck up in the chimney
And I don't know what it is,
But it's been there all week long.
Well, the dog keeps barking up the chimney flue
And we don't know what we're going to do.
Cause there's something stuck up in the chimney
And it doesn't move around.
And it's been a week since Christmas.

There's something stuck up in the chimney
And I don't know what it is,
But it's been there all month long.
Well it's jammed up tight above the fireplace
Now the house smells funny, such a big disgrace
That's there's something in the chimney
And it doesn't talk at all,
And it's been there since last Christmas.

There's something stuck up in the chimney
And I don't know what it is,
But it's been there all year long
I'll be waiting up for Santa like I did last year
But my brother say's "He's already here."
And he's stuck up in the chimney
And he doesn't say a word
And he'll be there every Christmas.
And we'll have him every Christmas.

Right, instrumental cases in grammar

I'm going to shut up right now, because it's unladylike Embarassed , I've already excited a self confessed pervert Razz and I'm sure WaytoRussia is reading this right now and has a good mind to send me the way of Winston Wu. Smile

Before I do, one last dirty Santa song!

Życzę Ci pogody ducha,
byś bez Viagry w świeta ru**ał,
dziewczę niech poczuje w kr***u,
że Dziadek Mroz jest raz w roku.
