[Intro: Fast, virtuosic Banjo and Fiddle duet, high energy] [Verse 1: Gritty male lead vocal, driving acoustic guitar rhythm] Jolly old store manager, Lean your ear this way; Don't you put the plastic trees Out on display today! Halloween has barely passed, The pumpkins still are orange; But you've filled the center aisle With a tinsel door-hinge. [Solo: Blazing Mandolin solo] [Verse 2: Add tight three-part Bluegrass harmony on second half] When the clock strikes midnight now, On the Oct'ber end; Down the street the blinking lights Start to turn and bend. Give the turkey just a chance, Let the harvest stay; Don't you hide the cornucopia With a wooden sleigh! [Solo: Fiddle solo, fast and "shredding"] [Verse 3: Full ensemble, high energy finale] Shelves are full of peppermint, Ribbons red and white; While we're seeking autumn leaves In the fading light. Wait until the feast is done, Keep the reindeer back; Stop the rush for holiday Gifts within your rack! [Outro: Final Banjo roll, abrupt "shave and a haircut" ending] [End]
