Tonight Thank God It's Them, Instead Of You
 


I wouldn't of mentioned Christmas again if someone hadn't arrived here by typing into a search engine 'Band Aid Do They Know It's Christmas, awful offensive'. Yes it is. Both.

Though, it's no where near as offensive as New Kids On The Block's Funky Funky Christmas.



'Funky, dope jam top on your Christmas list, do you dig this?'

It just reinforces the fact that for a song to be considered a 'Christmas' song it only has to contain the word 'Christmas'. There aren't even any bells in it.

But...there IS a rap. There's about 4 actually. At times it's hard to tell if they're rapping, singing or just saying words.

'Slipping and sliding through the city streets
I'll be in town getting down to the Christmas beat
It's Danny D I'm here with Christmas cheer
no feeling to end the party of the year
It's going, I'm showing fresh rhymes I'm throwing
it's snowing outside but we ho-ho-hoing
Santa's on the way, sleigh bells are ringing, swinging, everybody start
singing'

'Have a funky funky Christmas, have a funky funky Christmas.
New Kids On The Block, let's rock, it's Christmas time.
We're gonna celebrate it with a rhyme.

Danny D, are you ready? - 'Ready as I'll ever be!'
Steady - you know, Joey Joe is ready
Jordan and Jon, yeah, come on, we got a funky, funky Christmas going on.
Have a funky...
Funky Christmas and a funky new year, I swear we got ourselves a party
here
Girls on the floor knows our posse at the door
Should I stop - nah cool - here's more of this song, a funky Christmas
melody
'cause Jordan K feels so Christmasy
Throw your hands in the air pause, kick the ballistics Santa Claus'



It reads a lot better than it sounds.
