Christmas is Coming Soon
by Connie Pazienza and Cody Weathers
I see the street, and it's got a little snow
It should be warm in here by the Yule log,
But I can't shake this bitter cold
This jumble of lights I swore I'd untangle long ago
Gotta get busy gettin ready, gettin closer gettin kinda dizzy with it
Won't you please just hurry home
CHORUS:
Christmas is coming soon
And just as soon it'll go
My love for you shines through this cold wind
And guides you through the snow
Put up the tree, and it seems a little bare
I got the star in place, to the East it'll face
But my angel isn't there
This cranberry string is just as sour as they come
And I regret what I said when we parted, but baby
You're still my dancing sugarplum
(CH)
(Solos)
Look down the street, something's twinkling at the end
I got a lump in my throat like a teenage fool
Is it you coming home once again?
Rush out the door, I don't care if Jack Frost nibbles at my toes
'Cause I won't wait one more minute if this blizzard's got my baby in it
Gonna wrap you in my ribbons and bows

My Present
by Cody Weathers
You've got my present under ribbon and bow
You won't divulge it, but I think that I know
I heard a rumor --I hope that it's true
Please let my present be you
You try to hide it, but I look high and low
Even the places that you think I don't know
I try to shake it --but I can't get a clue
Please let my present be you
(Guitar)
I heard from Laura; Laura leaks but don't lie
Says I've beguiled you, though she couldn't say why
We've had our chances, but they've all gone askew
Please let my present be you
(Scat)
It's cold at Christmas, man it's crisp in this town
My heart's committed, still it pounds and it pounds
No kiss is riskless --no kiss just a kiss
Please let my present be this bliss
You've got my present under ribbon and bow
You won't divulge it, but I think that I know
I heard a rumor --I hope that it's true
Please let my present be you
Fade:
The only gift we give worth giving
The only thing that keeps me warm is love, love, love

Christmas Blue
by Cody Weathers
Holidays bring familiar gloom
I'm a Scrooge
And I spend each Christmas blue
Spend each Christmas blue
But then I met you
Only one thing is on my list
I'm the Grinch
Gonna steal your Christmas kiss
From off your Whoville lips
And you can't resist
Stockings hung by a dancing fire
I'm a coal
But I'll warm your heart's desire
Warm your heart's desire
If you let me try
All the ghosts sing the same old tune
'Tis the season you give the best of you
Love that's pure and true
That's what I wrapped you

DESCRIBE THAT NOISE:
Hard rock sensibilities fused with acoustic upbringing and jazz acumen operating in a truly independent consonant harmonic system.
