The Way-Too-Early Christmas Song
A reader sends in this video from Paul and Storm (who were the opening act at this year's Ig Nobel Prize ceremony, performing, among other things, their hilarious "Nugget Man"):
"The Way-Too-Early Christmas Song":

And winter’s still a ways away
But try to tell that to the folks down at the mall
Inside’s a winter wonderland
I’m sorry, I don’t understand
‘cause mistletoe on Veteran’s Day seems wrong
