Celebrate the upcoming holiday seasons by singing “Hillary of the Bells” to the tune of “Carol of the Bells” as a reminder of what we may get in our stockings next year, which could be coals. Of course, they might put a carbon tax on that one, too. Listen to this tune below and sing along for the next 13 months (or 5 years) using the revised lyrics. When performed the song begins quietly, and grows louder and louder as each voice is added, and at the end fades to a pianissimo.
Hark! how the bells
Gaudy silver bells
All seem to say,
Throw cares away
Hillary is here
Bringing dread and fear
To young and old
Meek and the not so bold
Ching Chong Ma-glaGong
That is their song
With joyless ring
All caroling
One seems to hear
Words of fear
From everywhere
Filling the air!
Oh how they pound!
Raising the sound!
O'er hill and dale
Telling their tales
Loudly they ring!
While people sing!
Songs of false cheer
Hillary is here!
On they send
On without end
Their doleful tone
To every home
Ching Chong Ding Ding....Chong!

Any volunteers?
