I’m looking for some campy Christmas tracks. I’m thinking that “Shoes for Mama” song, though campy humor tracks are in the running as well.
Help me irritate the crap out of my coworkers.

Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time by Paul McCartney.
Hippopotamus for Christmas by Gayla Peevey.
** Little Davey Dinkle ** sung by the cast of Urinetown on the Carols for a Cure 2001 CD. I know it’s working with my co-workers
“Grandma got runover by a reindeer”
Although they may string you up for playing it.
And dogs barking and cats meowing Christmas songs will get you tarred and feathered.
I always liked Martin Mull’s “Santa Doesn’t Cop Out On Dope.” I’d also recommend his “Santa Fly,” though it’s probably badly dated and I’ve only heard it once.
Get thee some Weird Al and quick
There you will find out why the reindeer need counciling and just what it a nuclear winter is all about!
Cheech and Chongs classic is good “A little bit more for Santa Claus…”
I like Geo Thorogood and the Destroyers XMas tune “Rock and Roll Christmas”
I can’t believe no one has yet mentioned it, but …
“The Chipmunk’s Christmas Song,” (Simon, Theodore & Alvin, that is! :D)
It’s campy but it’s also sentimental, and is bound to remind some older babyboomers of their childhood.
Thanks, these sound promising! Funny how I can stomach Christmas music again after a couple years away from retail.
I’m hoping I can find “Santa Doesn’t Cop Out on Dope” especially!
You can’t forget the greatest Christmas tune of all time:
“A Patrick Swayze Christmas” by Crow T. Robot.
A holiday classic if there ever was one.

Hard to find, but if you want camp look for:
CHRISTMAS IN N.Y off the Doctor Buzzard’s Original Savannah Band CD * Calling All Beatniks *
& for annoyance potential here’s a link you might find useful:

“Santa Baby” by Eartha Kitt makes a lot of people wretch. I enjoy it every now and then, myself, you understand, but some people…
The Beatles did a Christmas song which is very repetitive and annoying. “Christmastime is here again.”
“I Yust Go Nuts at Christmas” by Yogi Yorgesson.
Merry Christmas from the Family by Robert Earl Keen is great!
There’s also
The Chimney Song by (?)
Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses
Oi! To the World by the Vandals
The 12 days of Christmas by the Mackenzie Brothers
Also, there are a lot of really funny–but also REALLY offensive–holiday songs by Southpark characters.
How about Jeff Foxworthy’s “12 Days of Redneck Christmas”? I hope somebody plays that so I can laugh about the whole crappy season (sorry, I’m a direct descendant of Scrooge.)
C’mon, nobody likes Christmas in Hollis–RunDMC??? BEST xmas song evah!
Someone mentioned the Vandals… they have a whole CD called "Oi to the world"with thracks like “my first christmas as a woman” “grandpa’s last christmas” “christmas time for my penis” “thanks for nothing” a great album.
Also Fishbone has a great track called “Slick Nick you devil you” about santa being a drink and a bastard “Spillin jack daniels all over the drapes… painted a bad finger over the fireplace… smoking cloves and drinking scotch…”
There is also a really wierd christmas CD by the Squirrel Nut Zippers.
“I’m Going to Spend My Christmas With a Dalek” by either the ‘Go-Gos’ (no relation) or the ‘Go-Joes’ or something like that. May not make much sense if you’re not a ‘Doctor Who’ fan, but it should still be just as annoying and bizarre.
santa baby.
what?
stop hitting me!
