I saw Jimmy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night He didn't see me creep down the stairs to have a peek He thought that I was tucked up in my dorm room fast asleep Then I saw Jimmy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy wh ite What a laugh it would have been If Jess had only seen Jimmy kissing Santa Claus last night? I saw Jimmy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night He didn't see me creep down stairs to have a peek He thought that I was tucked up in my dorm room fast asleep Then I saw Jimmy tickle Santa Claus Underneath his beard so snowy white Oh what a laugh it would have been If Jess had only seen Jimmy kissing Santa Claus last night?

Said the first Jim to the second Jim Do you smell what I smell? Way up in the caf little Jim Do you smell what I smell? A smell, a smell, a kinda smelly smell A smelly smell that smells smelly A smelly smell that smells smelly Said the first Jim to the second Jim Do you hear what I hear? Screaming in the lounge little Jim Do you hear what I hear? A song, a song, a kind of angry song An angry song that makes people stare An angry song that makes people stare Said the first Jim to the second Jim Do you taste what I taste? At the bottom of your drink, little Jim Do you taste what I taste? Some salt, some salt, some very salty salt A salty drink that tastes salty A salty drink that tastes salty Said the first Jim to the second Jim Do you smell what I smell? Way up in the caf little Jim Do you smell what I smell? A smell, a smell, a kinda smelly smell A smelly smell that smells smelly A smelly smell that smells smelly

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads. And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap. When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash. The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below. When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer. With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St Nick. More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name! "Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen! On, Comet! On, Cupid! on, Donner and Blitzen! To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall! Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!" As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky. So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With the sleigh full of Toys, and St Nicholas too. And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. As I drew in my head, and was turning around, Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound. He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. A bundle of Toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack. His eyes-how they twinkled! his dimples how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow. The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath. He had a broad face and a little round belly, That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly! He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself! A wink of his eye and a twist of his head, Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk. And laying his finger aside of his nose, And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose! He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle. But I heard him exclaim, ‘ere he drove out of sight, "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!"

about

It has been almost two years since The Jimmys released new material. Over the course of that time, we have been coming up with new ideas and getting ready for the final main album of the band (coming next May). In order to get into the groove of recording again, we decided to get back to the roots of the band and parody Christmas songs, having them all be about our title member, Jimmy.

Since the original album, "A Very Jimmy Christmas" was never fully released, this Christmas EP features 6 songs done on the old album and one new track ("Deck the Halls"). Each of the re-done songs was polished lyrically and revitalized with our recording experience, acquired since the creation of "A Very Jimmy Christmas."

Though we have been focused on creating material for our Spring album, we hope you enjoy this little treat from us to you.

Have a happy holiday season,
The Jimmys
