Default A Christmas Tune for you

COMING OUT FOR CHRISTMAS
(to the tune of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing"
Words by Craig Sturgis, 1992

I intend to drop a bomb
On my dear old dad and mom
For this year, without a doubt
Is the Christmas I come out.
First I'll get their full attention.
Then slip in a subtle mention:
Tasty turkey! Perfect Peas!
Could someone pass (I'm gay) the cheese?
That should do the job okay
When I come out on Christmas Day.
Oh say can you see it now
Watch my parents have a cow.
Or perhaps, if fate is kind
They'll insist that they don't mind. ,
Then they'll say "We always guessed,
After all look how you're dressed.
Seven earrings in each ear.
We're not quite that dense my dear."
They'll adore me anyway.
When I come out on Christmas Day.,
Coming out to everyone
Makes the winter doldrums fun.
It's a noble thing to do,
Why don't you come on out too?
Make the choice! Damn consequence!
Lift your voice,get off the fence!
Shout it from the highest roof:
Gay isgreat and you're the proof
Make this Christmas bright and gay.
Come on out on Christmas day!
********
