Once upon a winter, it seemed so long ago
My one and only love and I fell down upon the snow
And as the dusk began to fall from that gray and goose-down sky
We heard the old cathedral bells ring out a lullaby
Snow angel, snow angel, one day I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel, wicked world, and all the tears I've cried
Show angel, snow angel, I'll meet you in the sky
Rumors of a distant war called out my true love's name
She packed her leather suitcase and spoke no words of blame
We walked a while together, I tried to hide my tears
She told me not to be afraid and whispered in my ear
Snow angel, snow angel, one day I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel, wicked world, and all the tears I've cried
Show angel, snow angel, I'll meet you in the sky
They brought my love home from the war in a cart pulled by white mules
The Christmas bells rang out that day, oblivious as fools
And as the snow began to fall, I kissed her frozen face
They told me in her woolen coat her last few words were placed
Snow angel, snow angel, one day I'm gonna fly
This cold and broken heart of mine will one day wave goodbye
Goodbye to this cruel, wicked world, and all the tears I've cried
Show angel, snow angel, I'll meet you in the sky

Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
We'll be drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year...

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a robot
And pretend that he is Dr. Brown [Great Scott!]
He'll say "Are you worried?"
We'll say "No, but
If you're out of line we'll shut you down."
[I'd like to see you try]
Later on, he'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
And face unaware the plans that they share
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow, robots build an army
And force all the humans underground [Where they belong]
They surround our last and greatest stronghold
And it's up to us to take them down!
[Resistance is illogical]
As they burn the metropolis
In the robot apocalypse
Survivors are few, so what can we do?
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
[Walking in a winter wonderland]
[Walking in a winter wonderland]

In the bleak midwinter, frost wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
snow had fallen, snow on snow, more than you could know,
in the bleak midwinter, long ago.
Angels and archangels may have gathered there,
cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;
but only his mother, in her maiden bliss,
worshiped the beloved with a single kiss.
What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd boy, I would bring a lamb;
if I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
yet what I can I give him: I will give my heart.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away.
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow.
And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.
Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
Tell what the glad tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Come to Bethlehem and see
Christ Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.
Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo

God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Saviour
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed Angel came;
And unto certain Shepherds
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
"Fear not then," said the Angel,
"Let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour
Of a pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might."
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Curiosities And Such
by Joy Electric
I can not discount the huge influence that Joy Electric has had on me and my music. "Cluster of Bare Trees" is one of the most haunting and thoughtful electronic songs I've ever heard.
go to album
It's hard to believe that this album was put together in a single month from start to finish, and all using a single piece of software.
go to album
Bill Mallonee and the Vigilantes of Love have a catalog of 40 albums, so it's hard to know which one to pick. I first heard this compilation disc back in college and never looked back.
