It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

By the mid of November every year, my favorite radio station will be playing Christmas songs day and night. K103fm, your official Christmas station is helping to create the mood for this festive season in Portland and Beaverton, Oregon. If you are physically there, tune to FM 103.3 MHz on your radio. Otherwise, you may listen to the live stream on the Internet powered by Liquid Compass. Due to certain legal issues, you will not be able to listen to all the local commercials on the internet streaming broadcast. You might miss stuffs like what are being offered at Fred Meyer, but who cares?

Here are the lyrics for one of the Christmas songs that is being played again and again on K103fm.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.

By the way, Robb Topolski changed the lyrics to something related to another annual event, but this one is a bit painful... hehehe. They recorded the song as well, no joke, man!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Focal
Everywhere you go!
Those three-sixties from five or ten
Of our most trusted friends
Superlatives that make our brag sheets glow!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Focal
Soon we’ll know our score
But the prettiest site to see is the paycheck that should be
Just a wee bit more

I told my absentee boss that my peers were a loss
And their work was ragged and rare
They would just talk and then go for a walk
And to me they just don’t compare
As I’m the best you must attest
And less would be unfair

It’s beginning to look a lot like Focal
Everywhere you go!
Our ratings will be proposed
In meetings behind doors closed
Can you recall events twelve months ago?

It’s beginning to look a lot like Focal
Our names upon the chart
But the thing that will go ka-ching
A raise I hope they bring
Please don’t break my heart

Hmm... annual performance review??? Sorry, I can't tell you, it is confidential... You have to find out yourself, no spoon-feeding! Anyway, Feliz Navidad !!!
