Since the next issue of WritersWeekly will be arriving in your in-box after Christmas, we are sharing our annual Christmas Sing-a-Long song with you this week. We hope you enjoy this poetic masterpiece!

Decked in the B*lls: A 2020 Christmas Carol

(Sing to the Tune of Deck the Halls)

Put your mask on, so fulfilling
Fa la la la la la la la la

In the streets they’re looting and killing
Fa la la la la la la la la

Don we now our body armor
Fa la la la la la la la la

Toilet paper we must garner
Fa la la la la la la la la

—

At the polls, there’s such a clatter
Fa la la la la la la la la

Who’d ya vote for? Doesn’t matter…
Fa la la la la la la la la

Don’t complain on social media
Fa la la la la la la la la

Zuckerberg will fast delete ya
Fa la la la la la la la la

—

Stay at home, don’t leave your castle
Fa la la la la la la la la

Forget your mask? You’re in for a hassle
Fa la la la la la la la la

Maintain your distance when you’re shopping
Fa la la la la la la la la

Vaccine is here but the bug’s not stopping
Fa la la la la la la la la

—

Xanax, Valium, and some Prozak
Fa la la la la la la la la

2020: Worse than a heart attack
Fa la la la la la la la la

Will the next year bring salvation?
Fa la la la la la la la la

Yes, because we’re a STRONG nation!
Fa la la la la la la la la

Fa la la la la LA LA LA LA!!!
