Christmas Songs

[lnr]

Found my brain singing Christmas Carols on the way home from work on the bike the other day. It added two other less traditional Christmas Songs from primary school too:

Mele Kalikimaka - which was introduced to us by our Head Mistress, who I believe was Hawaiian

and the mince pie song, which I can only find in someone's school performance:

Aaliyah's School Mince Pie Song

I couldn't remember the last verse, and since I haven't found them on Google here's the lyrics:

Christmas was a week away
I went out to tea
It was Granny's baking day
and she gave me mince pies 1, 2, 3

Chorus:
I ate them all and I'll tell you why
You get a happy month for each mince pie
I'm sure to be happy for years and years
cos I've got mince pies coming out of my ears

Next day when my auntie came
What a big surprise
In a great big shiny tin
There were lots and lots of hot mince pies

Chorus

There was nothing left for tea
On the larder shelf
So I thought I'd have a go
And I made some more mince pies myself

Chorus x 2

My head teacher was Hawaiian also, Mrs Robert and she introduced mele kelikimaka to us, I sing it to my family!

I also remember the mince pie song from Kippax north where I went to infants and juniors from roughly 1981- 87 (ish)

Hello anonymous, well identified!

You may well have been either in the same year as me or one year either side. I think I moved on from Kippax North to Brigshaw in 1987.
