Progressive Christmas Carols - Jon Cozart

We wish you happy holidays

Whoever you may be

So Merry Christmas, Kwanzaa, Chanukah

Or heck, all three

We’ve modernized these jingles for the massive bourgeoisie

Love, The Updated Christmas Carol Team

Oh, you’d better not judge, you’d better not hate

You better not bully or discriminate

Progressive Santa’s coming to town

He’s making a list of gluten-free foods

He won’t take a peek at J-Law's nudes

Progressive Santa’s coming to town

He’s 50 different races

And all for tax reform

He’ll protect all your children

Well, as long as they’ve been born

You’d better watch out--

Too far?

Okay

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer (reindeer)

Had an advantageous nose (he outlived his friends)

He passed his bright red traits on (traits on)

Darwin said that’s how it goes (evolution's not a theory)

Mary did you know

That your baby boy

Supports the NRA?

Mary did you know

That your baby boy

Is white?

Did you know--

Deck the halls with kujichagulia

Kwa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wanza

Give zawadi, hang benderas

Kwa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wanza

Throw your hands up in the air-a--

You’re a green one, Mr. Grinch

You’re lacking in finesse

That greenish epidermis determines your success

Mr. Grinch

Racist Whos constrain you to the issues they continue to suppress

You’re an outlier, Mr. Grinch

You give the Whos a fright

They say your heart is 3/5ths normal

You’re either wrong or white, Mr. Grinch

Don’t walk the streets of Whoville

You might fight a cop the Whos will not indict

I’m dreaming

Of a racially ambiguous holiday

Away in a manger with Jesus and crew

His schmeckle got cut 'cause hey Christ was a Jew

O holy night

The stars are brightly shining

It is the night Jesus did something holy

(I don’t know the whole story)

Joseph watched golf (right?)

His leather chair reclining

As Mary birthed a child

I think a donkey was involved

(Need help here… God?)

Three wise men came

With GPS they found Him

Christ lied in a barn

As His omniscient baby daddy tucked Him in

Jesus crawled on his knees

His mom shared it on Snapchat

O bright device

O night when Christ celebrated Christmas
