GET DOWN WITH THE CHRISTMAS

2007-12-23 by Jom | 49 Comments
WRIF 101.1, a Detroit-based rock-and-roll station (WRIF rocks Detroit @ http://www.wrif.com/), is getting into the holiday spirit by having a local musician (reportedly Dave Malosh, bassist of The Paybacks http://www.myspace.com/thepaybacks, according to disc jockey Doug Podell) come in and remix Disturbed's "Down with the Sickness."

Entitled "Down with the Christmas," please find the link below to listen to the track, as well as the transcribed [editor's note: I probably butchered some of these] lyrics:

Can you hear that?
The sleigh bells...

Buh-rup-rup-rup-rup!
Ho, ho! Ho, ho! Ho, ho!
Buh-rup-rup-rup-rup!
Ho, ho! Ho, ho! Ho, ho!

I can't sleep when I think of presents
Waiting for me under the tree
(Will you give them to me?)
It's probably the only time I'm up before 6:30 waiting
(Will you give them to me?)

Presents and lights in all directions
And candy canes and paper
I'll have to clean up later
YEEOW!
But I don't mind because it's Christmas time
And I've got the spirit in me!

Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Open up your gift and then you give one to me!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
You open it up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
It's time to get up and go get down with the Christmas!
Open up your gift and then you give one to me!

I can see you're trying to sleep while he's flying
Over your house on his sleigh
(He's gonna give it to me)
You're on his nice list, so you'll get some nice gifts on Christmas day
(He's gonna give it to me)
It seems he's having some trouble in squeezing down your chimney
Trying to get the cookies
YEEOW!
Now there is no turning back now, 'cause it's the Christmas season
Give me!

Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Open up your gift and then you give one to me!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
You open it up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
It's time to get up and go get down with the Christmas!
Open up your gift and then you give one to me!

Under my tree
Under my tree
Under my tree!

Buh-rup-rup-rup-rup!

Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
Open up your gift and then you give one to me!
Get up, come on, get down with the Christmas!
It's time to get up and go get down with the Christmas!
You gotta get up and go get down with the Christmas!
Grab a gift and give one to me!


While not confirmed, WRIF apparently created a You're The Man Now, Dog! image this past week (warning: naked baby butt) with "Down with the Christmas" as the background music for you to listen to:

On behalf of the Sputnikmusic moderation team, Happy Holidays from all of us, and may you all be blessed with good luck and good health in 2008.

Cheers to our friends at 101.1 WRIF for supplying the tune and YTMND.

Aww... It's the radio edit. It doesn't have that one art where the guy from Disturbed just yells and curses. I loved that part as a kid. What a disappointment.

Oh well, still funny. Thanks Jom.

Jom, you're an awesome bastard. Merry Christmas to ya.
That kind of ruled. Pretty funny stuff. I like the use of "Pah-rum-pum-pum-pum" in place of the David Draiman Monkey Screech (tm)

Rofl, I live near Detroit and WRIF doesn't play terrible stuff, lots of glam-rock, but occasionally they'll put on something worthwhile. I actually heard this song on the 23rd, it actually worked pretty good.
