Talking Alternative lyrics to Christmas Carols

Here's one I wrote for the IT dept:


On the first day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
a completely broken PC.

On the second day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the third day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the fourth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the fifth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the sixth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the seventh day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the eighth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Eight connection failures,
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the ninth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Nine locked accounts,
Eight connection failures,
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the tenth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Ten forgotten passwords,
Nine locked accounts,
Eight connection failures,
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the eleventh day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Eleven spyware issues,
Ten forgotten passwords,
Nine locked accounts,
Eight connection failures,
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC.

On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my users sent to me
Twelve helpdesk tickets,
Eleven spyware issues,
Ten forgotten passwords,
Nine locked accounts,
Eight connection failures,
Seven virus problems,
Six torn cables,
Five nervous breakdowns,
Four dead hard drives,
Three software bugs,
Two missing files,
And a completely broken PC!

The weather outside is frightful
The scene in MR delightful
Let's all stay home and crow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Ah, MR Christmas Carols That´s nice. How about:

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride in a llama open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride in a llama open sleigh

A day or two ago, I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Zelda Pinwheel, was seated by my side;
The llama lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot;
He got into a drifted thread and we got upsot

Chorus

A day or two ago, the story I must tell
I started posting in the lounge, and on my back I fell;
Pshrynk was riding by, in a flying-car open sleigh
He laughed as there I sprawling lie but quickly flew away

Chorus

......
