This was a funny song :) This line: "It's still Christmas Eve to me" works very well as a refrain, and it would sound great when sung aloud. Have good luck in the contest.

Comment from Frank Malley
The poem, "It's Still Christmas Eve to Me," is an excellent funny lyric set to align with Billy Joel's "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me." Once I had that song as my meter map, the poem worked well for me. Santa sings the song,and he tells the person looking to steal his job that he's a "Snide smirk, big jerk' maybe good as a clerk."
And Santa's gonna hold onto his job. He's been through a thousand Christmas Eves to prove his capability to deliver.

Thank you Frank. One thing I love about you, is that when you write a good review, I know that you mean it. That means a lot to me. Thanks again my friend for your kind comments and review.
Comment from Sally Law
This is more fun than I can stand on a Thursday morning before my office Christmas luncheon. I had fun singing along. O what fun it is to ride in Santa's singing sleigh! A delightful one, mystery poet!
Sending you my best today as always, Christmas blessings, and best wishes for the contest!

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Funny, well-rhymed, and I can certainly sing along with the musical choice you have here. Good image for this purpose, and I love the green background color on this.
Nicely done - good luck!
I don't understand the line: Where have you been working, out lately mister." Does the comma belong there?

Hi Pam, thanks for the lovely review and comments. You were absolutely right about that line, as it was a typo and I accidentally put the comma in the wrong place. I sure appreciate you pointing that out to me. Thanks again my dear friend.

A fun holiday twist on a classic song. Well done. I enjoyed your lyrics and the story they told. I laughed at the need for McD's and Little Debbies to get back into shape.

Thanks Charles! I love when you stop in for a visit. I should've had some milk and cookies ready, lol. Thanks for the awesome review and fun comments my dear friend! I was worried that I might have made Santa look like a bad guy, but even Santa gets stressed during the holidays, : )
Comment from Thomas Blanks
Nice job on the Billy Joel song rewrite! Is that a photo of a Santa audition or a suspect lineup for a pedophile bust? I always wondered why Santa's belt wasn't in his pants.

Ok Tom, you got me! You should have seen the words I had to take out of here so they wouldn't DQ me, J.k haha! But I did change a few, cause it was starting to look like Santa was a monster yelling at this guy. I guess I was just in one of those moods this morning, Your last comment may never be known, since I know of some kids first words were, "ho ho ho!," : )
Thanks for the fun review and giving me a great laugh!
