Some of you might remember, the modern day version of the Twelve Days of Christmas. Pardon the more "colorful" words but in the spirit of accuracy of what one might see in this situation, here is my version of the classic.

Sounds like a helluva PAR-TAY!!!!!
This was hilarious. I love the text message rebuttals.
I just hope it's the cows those maids are milking. Otherwise it's an entirely different party altogether. Pass that piper's pipe... it's gonna be a looooong clean up process.
BAHHAHhHAhHAhHAhHHHAHh! AHAhHAhHahahhaajajajajsjsjajsjjajaFSAAAHAHHAHHAHHHHHAHHAHHAH
OMG!! FUCKING HILARIOUS!
I LOVE YOU!
Merry Christmas!
I'm off searching for some matching very high heeled boots for that stunning green outfit for Crabby Pants. I do remember this post and throughly re-enjoyed it. I love these 'updated' Christmas songs. There must be a link to all of them somewhere...
Hilarious! I've always hated that song.
And a rather "fowl" one too, I imagine. Happy Holidays to you and your family!!!
Thanks! I would have to be smokin' something if I was around all those birds. Not a big fan.
I love you too! You are the best!!!
Happy Holidays, Meleah!!! I have it on good authority that you are on the nice list this year.
Funny that you should mention Crabby's shoes...I had a devil of a time trying to work her little Mary Jane's into that robe.
There is probably a link to "updated" songs on the Internet. I think EVERYTHING can be found on the web if one was looking for it.
Happy Holidays to you and your family, Wendy!!
Verry funny! I've never though about what it would be like to receive these gifts. Take care and Merry Christmas.
Thanks, Debra! I had never given much thought to how stupid the lyrics are until I started doing that post. My husband gave me two love birds before we got married. I hated them..truly they were the noisiest, messiest two little feathered beasts that ever lived. Had he given me more than two...I would of called off the wedding.
Word to the wise.. girls want jewelry more than birds.
You and Mrs. C, have a great holiday as well.
Aww! Yay!
xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I never really got the whole bird thing in the 12 days of Christmas...that's 23 danged birds. Of course, the cats would like it, except maybe for the geese and swans. I'll take a nice bottle of wine, two crystal glasses, three plates of cheese, four loaves of bread...
Merry Christmas, Cheryl!!
Who wrote that song and what were they on? This is just about the response anybody would give, after receiving all that :)
No joke? That adds up to 23 birds? Hahaha...I never really thought about it. Can you imagine??? I think you have the right idea. Someone needs to come up with the new updated gift list. The only one worth saving is the 5 golden rings.
Merry Christmas to you and your family as well, Linda.
They definitely weren't thinking clearly. Maybe too much holiday "spirits". Hope you and Mo have a great holiday. Hopefully no birds (at least no living birds) are coming your way to make any messes.
Happy Holidays!!!!
I got 9 days off for Christmas. 5 off them are paid and I still have a job. Whoo hoo Merry Christmas.
I keep my birds outside now. Maybe you've seen some of them?
That sounds like a nice Christmas treat...9 days off. Even better getting paid for more than half of them. Whoo hoo for sure.
Merry Christmas to you and your family at well.
Thank you for cracking me up again and this year I showed it to my niece and it cracked her up too
I would love to get all those animals, and a few maids to help out around here! Send John my way, because my husband gets me the same thing every year for Christmas ... ;)
I am so glad you enjoyed it. I love people that have a good sense of humor. Happy Holidays, Jo-Anne. (It's already Christmas Day where your at, isn't it??)
If all those animals would work for their keep, that could be a plus, but I suspect that they would just make big messes and expect you to clean up after them. Same ole', same ole'
I'd like to think whatever you get every year is magnificent and wonderful. I hope this year you get lots of good fortune. You deserve it after last year. How is your daughter doing?
Have a Merry Christmas, Jane. AND especially have a happy and prosperous New Year.
