A closer look at the 8 creepiest lyrics from popular Christmas songs.
CHRISTMAS SEASON


1. This unsettling ode to holiday date rape is a relic of an era when "No" meant "Not if I'm conscious."

 


2. Congratulations on making Santa Claus sound like even more of a stalker than the vampire from Twilight.

 


3. Bono's signature line from this overwrought Band-Aid ballad — ironically intended to help feed starving children — sounds more like one big "Sucks to be them."

 


4. The only thing more disturbing than all the merchandise this shameless gold-digger wants from St. Nick is what she's willing to do to get it.

 


5. Nothing says Christmas like two schizophrenics in a meadow having a spirited conversation with an inanimate object.

 


6. This treacly, manipulative garbage was written for one reason and one reason only: to make your mom cry. These guys are assholes.

 


7. This lesser-known holiday tune from the late John Denver is about as heartwarming as a plane crash.

 


8. Eventually axed from this plodding dirge to make it only slightly less depressing, this actual line from the original version straight-up predicts your impending death.

    loannie >what about don we now our GAY apparel??? i always picture drag queens. hahahahaha <

    Many years ago Playboy had a carton which showed a man standing in front of a mirror putting on women's clothing with the caption "Don we now our gay apparel!" Of course, now we know that cross-dressing does not mean that someone is gay.

    "What a laugh it would have been if Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Clause last night." ....

    The 1974 TV movie "The Execution of Private Slovik" used "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" as Slovik was executed by firing squad. Never have liked the song since. A great film, however.

    You forgot: "There'll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmas long, long ago." from It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

    Finally, I am vindicated! I've been pointing these out for years, especially 'Baby, It's Cold Outside.
