There are some beautiful songs that celebrate the Christmas season out there. They celebrate the birth of our Lord, the time we get to spend together as families during this holiday season and the beautiful, universal themes of peace on Earth, good will to man.
And then there are all those other songs. Some of them are fun to sing, some of them are really obnoxious. Some of them make you want to scream.
And some of them just don’t make any sense. Here’s my favorite example of a line from a Christmas song that makes no sense whatsoever, in or out of context:
Christmas comes this time each year.
Um, yeah. . . . And Thursday comes this time each week. Thanks for the lesson immemorial about . . . the calendar.
What’s your favorite dumb line from a Christmas song?
Keep your eyes peeled! The December GWP is coming next week!

I don’t have a dumbest line. I just hate when they turn Christmas songs into something that sounds like Iron Maiden!
What, you don’t think there was much headbanging that night in Bethlehem?
Every time we hear The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (I think that’s the name of the song), the line about getting together and telling scary ghost stories, my husband always has to comment that there is really only ONE Christmasy ghost story.
I really like the song “Last Christmas” but it doesn’t make much sense to me
“Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away”
How can you give away someone else’s heart? You can break it but you can’t just re-gift it!
I don’t know off the top of my head. But I have to agree with Jordan that turning christams songs into heavy metal just doesn’t seem right.
I love the song, “Silent Night.” But do you really think that night was silent? “All is calm?” The author of those words obviously has never birthed a baby!
“He sees you when you’re sleeping/He knows when you’re awake.” That makes Santa sound like some kind of psychotic freak.
For the longest time, I thought the words to Winter Wonderland went like this…”Later on, we’ll perspire – as we dream by the fire”…
I’m pretty sure those are the right words 😉 . They make the most sense to me!
