Happy Holidays! Take that, Faux News and shove your phony "War on Christmas" where the sun doesn't shine. Marcy Shaffer has created another parody that won't please Roger Ailes and his talking heads. She has raised this blogger's consciousness: Frack You, Faux News! May your miserable lives be one continuous Cluster Frack! If this is (fair & balanced) holiday raillery, so be it.

"Oil To The World"
A Parody By Marcy Shaffer
Arranged by Greg Hilfman
Based upon “Joy To The World” (Traditional)
OIL TO THE WORLD
COULD POUR HERE FROM
IT IS MIRACULOUS
THAT WE FORESEE SUCH PLENTY
BY ROUGHLY 2020
THIS FLOW INDIGENOUS
GIVING BACK OUR MUSCLE, THUS
OH, NO ONE, NO, NO ONE
CAN FRACK WITH US
ALL HAIL TO SHALE
THAT BLESSED ROCK
AND TO ITS CRUDE HOME-BREWED
TAKE THANKS TO ALL THE FRACKERS, WHO
BREAK RANKS WITH ALL THE SQUACKERS, WHO
CRY SLIME WILL PRIME MUTANT FOOD
AND CLIMATE CHANGE WILL CONCLUDE
WITH HEAVEN AND NATURE
GETTING BARBECUED
OIL FIELDS UNFURLED
AS EUROPE SAVES
WHAT CHINA CRAVES LIKE CRACK
WHEN GAS IN EVERY AUDI
NO LONGER MUST BE SAUDI
WE'LL RULE THE POWER PACK
OUR FUEL THE JEWEL THEY LACK
NO BLUSTER
A BLOCKBUSTER
CLUSTER FRACK
OIL TO THE WORLD
THE US MAY
HAVE EXTRA TO TRANSACT
WE BOAST BY SWEET LIGHT CAROL
TO TOAST EACH SWEET LIGHT BARREL
FOR AS WELLS LIKE SHELL'S EXTRACT
ONLY TIME WILL TELL HOW THEY ACT
AND HOW MUCH IN FACT EXACTLY
WE'LL BE FRACKED
HOW MUCH IN FACT EXACT
WILL WE BE FRACKED? Ω
