The new Free Single of the Week on iTunes (iTunes link) is great. It is Bob Dylan doing a polka Christmas song. The song is so ridiculous and infectious. It makes me want to throw on a sweater, clap my hands and dance in a circle. Maybe I’d be drinking mulled wine in this fantasy too — not sure.
The lyrics go like this:
Who’s got a beard that’s long and white?
Santa has a bear that’s long and white
Who comes around on a special night?
Santa comes around on a special night
Special Night
Beard that’s white
Must be Santa
Must be Santa
Must be Santa, Santa Claus
The chorus keeps getting longer and longer as more characteristics are attributed to Santa. I don’t really get why president’s names are being mixed in with reindeer names at the end (not sure why he skipped Ford though), but it adds to the crazy buildup of the song.
