Ho, ho, ho! It’s that time of year again folks, and as we count down the days to Christmas, now is a great time to learn some funny Christmas songs. After all, ’tis the season to be jolly! Stretch your vocal chords, or stretch your fingers on the piano, and have the whole family laughing with these new, funny Christmas songs for children.

Doth Thou Know’st Ye Olde Lyrics?

The traditional carols have such beautiful melodies, but sometimes the lyrics to Christmas songs are hard to understand. After a “hither”, a “thou know’st”, and a “good league”, most adults start to lose the plot, so imagine how difficult it must be for children! To make the traditional Christmas songs more relevant for today’s kids, I decided it was time to write some new song lyrics.

So I set to work and wrote a collection of funny Christmas songs for children that preserves the original melodies of our favorite Christmas carols, but breathes completely new life into them. They’re Christmas songs like you’ve never heard them before! They’re wierd, wacky, and warped, but all in good fun! Here’s a sample:

Groove King Senseless
(To the tune of Good King Wenceslas)

Groove King senseless last looked out
On his fans all screaming.
Drove into a round-about,
Deep in his day dreaming.

Brightly shone the police light,
Though his fate was cruel.
When he stumbled out of sight,
Up went all the fu-u-el!

Turn the page and you will see
Why the news is selling
Vonda Shepherd, who is she?
What’s with all the yelling?

Says she jumped a giant fence
From a nearby mountain
For his love – it makes no sense
But she hit the fountain!

Bring me flesh, and bring me bones
Please don’t take forever.
How can I answer the phones?
‘Til she’s back together.

Here’s a left and there’s a right
Fixed with lots of good glue
Poor Groove King got such a fright
Do you think he’ll sue?

Funny Christmas songs are a great way to encourage children to sing or play piano. Practising an instrument can seem like a chore, so the more fun you can make it, the better! The Christmas carols I chose as candidates for new lyrics, have simple yet powerful melodies that make the sheet music suitable for older children or intermediate students.

Anyone who just wants to sing along instead (big kids included!), will have a great time with these wacky new lyrics! Funny Christmas songs allow children to sing along easily while they learn the original tune, and have fun! Why not even have a go at writing your own funny words? The whole family could have a competition to see who can write the funniest lyrics. Surprise your friends and family this Christmas with some outrageous, warped, and funny Christmas songs!
