Twas the night before Christmas, and in front of my abode
People were stopping their cars, right in the middle of the road.

They'd stop right in front of the house and say, "I'm not breaking any laws."
No, but I'll bet you didn't get a thing last night from one Mr. Santa Claus.

Other cars would honk, they'd scream and they'd yell,
On this holiest of nights they told each other to go to h*ll.

Despite the reminders that this was all for their own protection
They'd drive away as if to raise some great big objection.

I didn't want to be be out there for the entire cold, dark, night
But if I didn't people would probably end up starting a fight.

These are the downsides to a large, elaborate display
Set up to honor the Christian holy day.

Don't worry though, We'll set it up again next year,
Thanks to the other positive comments we always hear.

More lights, new songs, and bigger and better than ever
We won't let the Grinch's get to us, not now, not never!
