Текст песни: Wreck the Halls with Boughs of Holly + перевод

M: 'Tis the night before Equimas and all through the town

Everything’s coming loose; everything’s falling down

(sounds of things falling and crashing)

Be careful with that holly!

L: Don’t nail anything to the wall, I’m warnin' ya. Use Scotch tape;

Scotch tape is better!

C: For paper, it’s good. For holly, it’s rotten!

M: Watch out what you hang on that chandelier; it’s not strong!

C: Tinsel. Tinsel. It’s only tinsel

L: It’s too MUCH tinsel!

C: What harm could one more teensy weensy piece of tinsel do? Here,

let me show you… there. See? AHHHHHH! (chandelier crashes)

M: Though we hang our gay decorations with care

L: The whole house is a mess

M: and we cry in despair!

ALL: (crying, then singing:)

Don’t wreck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Decorating can be folly

Fol-ly-fol-ly-fol-ly-fol-ly-fol

(more crashes)

M: I _told_ you it wouldn’t hold! You wouldn’t listen! (SLAP!)

C: Oooh, that hurt!

M: No, it didn’t! THIS one will hurt! (SLAP!)

C: OOOOW! Hey, you’re right!

ALL: Holly leaves are sharp like stingers

Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Handle them with dainty fingers

Fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

C: Ooh, my finger! It’s bleedin'!

M: Serve ya right; I told you it was sharp! The bush is not straight!

L: It’s leaning

M: It’s too much decorations on the left side!

L: No, it’s NOT ENOUGH decorations on the left side!

C: You’re BOTH wrong; it’s not enough on the top! Here, I’ll show ya!

L: No, no, don’t put anything more on the top!

M: Come down from there! Watch out what you’re doin'!

C: Oooh! Whoa!

L: It’s dangerous! I’m warnin' ya, I’m tellin' ya it’s…

M: TIMMM-BERRRRRRRRRR! (bush and Curly crashes)

C’mon, Larry, let’s get Curly Joe out from under that bush again
