Elf Rights - words & music by Shane Cooley
Santa has really got it easy
Chilling at the Pole 364 days
His workshop should really be called a sweatshop
The elves are overworked and underpaid
The elves really should get a union
The hours are overly absurd
Anybody else would complain
But bless their hearts
They never say a word
It's about time for a change
They're going on strike
You better watch out
They're gonna prove
That size doesn't count
They work every day
Except for Christmas night
It's time to join the fight for elf rights
Making toys used to be so easy
But now it's a world of wires and microchips
Whatever happened to a good old-fashioned yo-yo
Now every kid's got A.I. on their Christmas list
They're going on strike
You better watch out
They're gonna prove
That size doesn't count
They work every day
Except for Christmas night
It's time to join the fight for elf rights
They're going on strike
You better watch out
They're gonna prove
That size doesn't count
They work every day
Except for Christmas night
It's time to join the fight
They're going on strike
The movement has begun
They won't stop
Until they've won
So when you open your presents
From the Big Red himself
Remember who gets the credit
The elves
Duh
Hey man somebody has to stick up for these elves
They're working hard
We're all working hard
These guys are trying to keep up with the times
Remember Furbies
You know those things with the big ol' cute eyes
That would ask you to tell them your secrets
Now they're designing things that are beyond your comprehension
They're figuring out the algorithms
We're all trying to figure out the algorithms
We're all trying to move along and shake along with life
Shake along with that social media
That social anxiety
It's a lot
If I were an elf
I'd go to the South Pole
I'd get a good lawyer
And I'd sue

Snow Globe - music & lyrics by Shane Cooley
In this snow globe that we all live in
May we get what we give this season
From icy nights cold beyond reason
I have come home now and I ain't leaving
In this snow globe by a frozen river
That I could skate on and be delivered
Every snowman shakes and shivers
To the rock n' roll and jingle bells of silver
In this snow globe
This snow globe
This now globe
In this snow globe
It's a silent night
All is calm now
And for now I'm alright
Wherever you are
Don't lose hope
Wherever you are
You're not alone
In this snow globe
Happy Holidays <3
