A New Zealand Christmas
After Nakedblog's comments in response to what I wrote about Christmas carols I showed some of the efforts to my colleagues. One told me that her daughters used to sing a New Zealand carol and she managed to find a link to the lyrics. The link also describes Christmas on the beach.
Christmas on the Beach
We don't want no holly or mistletoe.
We don't want no Christmas tree with artificial snow.
We don't want no snowman made of cotton wool.
We're not a bunch of fools
Christmas on the beach. Christmas on the beach.
Pack your picnic hamper up, we're gonna have a feast
Underneath the huge Pohutukawa tree.
Christmas on the beach
We don't want no reindeer. We don't want no sleigh.
We just want some sunshine and a good old holiday.
We don't want to suffocate in our shoes and socks.
We don't want to sit around the box.
Christmas on the beach, Christmas on the beach.
Pack your picnic hamper up, we're gonna have a feast
Underneath the huge Pohutukawa tree.
Christmas on the beach
