The Way-Too-Early Christmas Song

Posted by Robin Abrahams November 3, 2008 07:45 AM

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":

Halloween was yesterday
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
