Track listing

[edit]
  1. The Twelve Pains of Christmas (3:36)

  2. The Chimney Song (2:06)
    • Original song, sung by a little girl. The song describes the ensuing months after Santa Claus gets stuck in someone's chimney.
  3. We Wish You Weren't Living With Us (0:44)
    • Parody of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas". Sung as a normal Christmas carol. About relatives who overstay their visit, becoming a nuisance to the host.
