Another long day at Santa's factory All that I've been thinking 'bout is you and me Making toys right next to you it's clear to see what I ain't got the guts to say but maybe it'll be today, okay (baby, I love you) The night before Christmas and we're finishing up I catch you peaking at me over your coffee cup and so I grow a pair of chestnuts and I ask you "what's up?" You say "I sure love this peppermint coffee, would you wanna find some time to get some with me, baby?" and I say Let's just go out Christmas All that I want is us I hope we don't miss the sun going down on Christmas sun going down on Christmas tomorrow night Christmas is here, I get to spend it with you Havin' flirty chats over some reindeer stew Eagerly awaiting the celestial view But why are people running away? What did the elf on the news just say? (Hermey, please shut up) They said there's been an incident that happened last night Somehow Santa's sleigh screwed up Earth's orbital flight and now we're speeding towards the sun, we're gonna hit it tonight But I wanna spend Christmas with you Is there anyone we can turn to? Wait! I know who… Santa can save Christmas I know that he loves us Maybe we can miss the sun going down on Christmas sun going down on Christmas - there he is! Hey, my little helpers, its me, Santa Claus I'm packing my sleigh and there's no time to pause I just heard the news - Earth's colliding with the sun But don’t worry little elves, this won’t end the yuletide fun I'm leaving town and I'm leaving you all behind 'cause Santa's got a jolly idea in mind I'm building North Pole 2 way up on Mars You can call me Space Santa, I'm flying out to the stars Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! This is our last Christmas All that we have is us Now I know that we won't miss the sun going down on Christmas sun going down on Christmas, hey, hey, hey, hey! *explosion* ouch

Oh! Umm... so... where does it start? Well, uh, so the parent company for Calvin Klein had a, um, company party at the cathedral and they left about a dozen Christmas trees (« Douze sapins ? C'est pas possible » .) and they said anyone could take them, so I was the first one to take one. I got the biggest one... one of the biggest... the biggest, yeah, and I had to take it up eighty-four fli... uh, eighty-four steps to get to my apartment, and the needles went everywhere. (« Ahh » !) They were on my steps for like two more months, really. (« Quelle horreur ! Les aiguilles sont partout » !) Um, but then when I got it up there, it was perfect, and it had lights already on it, a ton of different... you could make it... you know, flash and sparkle and what not, and I left it there until the end of February because it didn't make sense to take it down any earlier. So I took it down on Mardi Gras.

Hey, Mom. What do you call a snowman in the summer? A puddle. Why do mummies love Christmas? Because of all the wrapping. Why does Rudolph have a red nose? He sneezes a lot.
10.
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your nose Yuletide carols being sung by a choir and folks dressed up from head to toe Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe help to make the season bright Tiny tots, with their eyes all aglow will find it hard to sleep tonight They know that Santa's on his way He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh And every mother's child is gonna spy to see if reindeer really know how to fly And so I'm offering this simple phrase to kids from one to ninety-two Although it's been said many times, many ways Merry Christmas to you

...on the twelfth day of Christmas My true love gave to me Twelve drummers drumming Eleven pipers piping Ten lords-a-leaping Nine ladies dancing Eight maids-a-milking Seven swans-a-swimming Six geese-a-laying Five golden rings Four calling birds Three French hens Two turtle doves And a partridge in a pear tree

Christmasman 03:00
I was a reindeer, along the fluffy clouds I ride with Rudolph and Blitzen by my side Many a young child waited for our toys So much Christmas joy for all the girls and boys The naughty list bastards will get only coal But Santa's sleigh will roll I was Santa, I was born a jolly elf The naughty list I keep to myself I sail my big red sleigh all around the world I went aloft to fly my sleigh through a blizzard snow And if we get lost we'll use Rudolph's light But we'll get through tonight Ho, ho, ho! I was a toy builder, way up across the North divide Where elf magic and toy skills collide I slipped and fell off the back of Santa's sleigh They didn't find my body until Christmas day They buried me with a candy cane tombstone in the ground But my elf magic is still around It'll always be around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around, and around I fly Santa's sleigh across the planet Earth's divide And when we reach the other side I'll find a tree to place the toys the best I can Perhaps St. Nick will let me drive next year again Or I may simply be a single flake of snow But I will always go And if Santa asks I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go, and I'll go

Er, how did you get rid of it? Ah. Well, dragged it down the stairs, there were even more needles than before, and then I left it on the side of the road 'cause they were still picking them up. And that's my story. Wait, also, FYI, as my way of not being on my phone too much, my apps will, like, cut off immediately at midni-

Douce nuit, sainte nuit ! Dans les cieux ! L'astre luit. Le mystère annoncé s'accomplit Cet enfant sur la paille endormi, C'est l'amour infini ! C'est l'amour infini ! Saint enfant, doux agneau ! Qu'il est grand ! Qu'il est beau ! Entendez résonner les pipeaux Des bergers conduisant leurs troupeaux Vers son humble berceau ! Vers son humble berceau ! C'est vers nous qu'il accourt, En un don sans retour ! De ce monde ignorant de l'amour, Où commence aujourd'hui son séjour, Qu'il soit Roi pour toujours ! Qu'il soit Roi pour toujours ! Quel accueil pour un Roi ! Point d'abri, point de toit ! Dans sa crèche il grelotte de froid O pécheur, sans attendre la croix, Jésus souffre pour toi ! Jésus souffre pour toi ! Paix à tous ! Gloire au ciel ! Gloire au sein maternel, Qui pour nous, en ce jour de Noël, Enfanta le Sauveur éternel, Qu'attendait Israël ! Qu'attendait Israël !

Thanks for listening. Ha ha ha!

about

Last year, the cancellation of a festive performance at a December event resulted in the last-minute creation of a holiday album, Frootcake Vol. 1. In lieu of that performance, Mudfroot played at a "Christmas in July"-themed Perkasie Farmers Market on July 24, 2021. Framed by recordings from that summery Brood X cicada-filled day, mixed with newly recorded songs, Frootcake Vol. 2 offers an abundance of pure frooty goodness for all to enjoy.

Recorded slightly less remotely than its predecessor, the recording and release of this new festive album continued the tradition of chaotic collaboration and resulted in what Rolling Stone is calling "Mudfroot's best holiday album released this year".
