Too Cool for the Yule - In Its Own Words

writer(s): Detrick, Dana Marie (ASCAP); Clark, Paul Martin (ASCAP)
publisher: Serious Vanity Music (ASCAP)


This is a tale
Of a superstar pair
Who on Christmas morning
Found fate waiting there

One little boy
With a grin on his face
Ran under the tree
To retrieve his first bass

At the same time
In a house not too far
Was a small little girl
Strumming her first guitar

And as other kids raced
To fight out in the snow
These two forged the plans
For their first studio

They dubbed and they tracked
and they mixed down with glee
And soon this young set
Was bound for T.V.

They were Glam
They were Folk
They could sure bring the Rock
But also they dabbled in Bartok and Bach.

When Santa Came back
To check in on these two
He’d given them instruments
To see what they’d do

He giggled and laughed
As only he could
Not even he knew
That they’d be this good

So he left them a spotlight
The last gift they’d need
And left it to them
To fail or succeed

But his last words were heartfelt
Not bitter or cruel
“You don’t need me now that
You’re Too Cool for the Yule!”

The two found their spotlight
And then they were set
Their rockin’ new tunes
Made the best Christmas yet
