Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer - Thee Merry Widows

Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa

But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

She’d been drinkin' too much eggnog

And we’d begged her not to go

But she forgot her medication

And she staggered out the door into the snow

When we found her Christmas mornin'

At the scene of the attack

She had hoof prints on her forehead

And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back

Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa

But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Now we’re all so proud of Grandpa

He’s been takin' this so well

See him in there watchin' football

Drinkin beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle

It’s not Christmas without Grandma

All the family’s dressed in black

And we just can’t help but wonder:

Should we open up her gifts or send them back?

(send them back)

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa

But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Now the goose is on the table

And the pudding made of fig

And a blue and silver candle

That would have just matched the hair in grandma’s wig

I’ve warned all my friends and neighbors

«You better watch out for yourselves

They should never give a license

To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.»

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa’s

But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Grandma got run over by a reindeer

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa

But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

As for me and Grandpa, we believe

(Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg)

(The Batmobile lost its wheel and the Joker got away, hey)
