How to Make Your Own Version of 12 Days Before Christmas
I've done this several times, and it gets more fun each time! You can either make it up on the spot, or compose the lyrics yourself.The Original Lyrics (Condensed)
On the __ day of Christmas,My true love gave to me:
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings!
Four calling birds,
Three french hens,
Two turtle doves,
and a partridge in a pear tree.
What to Make of It
Stay on the beat! Edit/mess up the lyrics as much as you want, just stay on the beat!and a dee da dum dum da da (Partridge in a pear tree)
Sometimes you can hold notes: (dee = double da)
and a dee dum da dum da da (Video game console)
Mess up with the notes as long as you don't make it longer or shorter.
