The 'ELF'-Word -Single Version

from LawrenceWiseAndTheCosmicFunkOrchestra/OSMOSIS Hosted by LawrenceWiseAndTheCosmicFunkOrchestra/OSMOSIS

This year, Ol' Santa Claus is really catching it from (a)The Air Force; (b)Homeland Security; (c)the Subway System, and even (d)'Black Friday' Shoppers. It's enough to make the "Jolly One" just toss up his mitten'd hands and drop the "ELF" word on the world. Hey, if you think that Santa shouldn't be complaining in our current day and age, then go ELF yourself!! --------------------------------- I have been experimenting with my guitar and bass (and recording them into my computer) for over a year, when I made the instrumental for this during the summer. I couldn't find any lyrics, so I just let it sit. Then, of course, the post-Halloween "Christmas Rush" hit, so that gave me an idea. Almost 3 years prior, I released "EVIL KLAUZ", bringing Jolly Ol' St. Nick into our current economic times (yea, Santa's struggling too!). Of course, Santa's not really evil--it's just the world around him went wing-wang nuts: wars, bad economy, etc. So, even Santa had to do what he could to survive (even if it meant taking back all the presents he delivered so that he can SELL them and pay off HIS debts--Reindeer are very expensive!!). The "LYRICS" to "The 'ELF' Word" kinda serves as a sequel to the previous song. This time around, due to extremely heightened security, Santa's Sleigh is a FLIGHT RISK, and the Air Force tracks him with RADAR. If that's not enough, Homeland Security confiscates his bag of gifts at a checkpoint stop. And to add insult to injury, Santa has to take the crowded Metro, and gets pissed off when he discovers that folks have been X-Mas shopping since Halloween--thereby, almost rendering our Jolly Red Elf obsolete. Yup, our poor disgruntled Santa is now part of the ever-growing "99%". Can you blame him if wants to shout "Go 'ELF' Yourself!!"?! The saga of the Santa Claus Of Our Times continues. Merry Twistedmas and a Slap-Happy New Year! BRAND NEW "Merry Twistedmas" jam from OSMOSIS. N-Joy the funk!! From the album "The SPACEMAN Who WALKS Among US". (SG-200312)
