A LITTLE SEASONAL SACRILEGE

Thanks to the snowballing of Christmas commercials, music and decorations, I have chosen to whip out this timeless classic from the 1970's run of national Lampoon magazine, one of the seminal influences (for better or worse) on my sense of humor. When reading the following, think of it as a parody of John Lennon's early solo vitriol. And to think, two nice Catholic boys came up with this one!

MADONNA VOMIT (P.J. O'ROURKE & SEAN KELLY, 1973)

Away in a manger,
No crib for his bed,
His mother blew her lunch
All over baby Jesus' head!

CHORUS
Madonna Vomit!
Uuuuuuullllllllgggggh!
Madonna Vomit!
Uuuuuuullllllllgggggh!
Madonna Vomit!
Uuuuuuullllllllgggggh!

Jesus came from heaven
To save the human race,
But even Virgin Mary
Shot her cookies in his face!

CHORUS

The seraphim are gathered
And the whole angelic squad
To see the Blessed Virgin
Flash the hash all over God!

CHORUS

A tender little tableau
The star shines down upon:
The Virgin treating Jesus
To a Technicolor yawn!

CHORUS

The boss
On the cross
Died
Clyde
