Bye bye drummer boy

I was just thinking about Carol's the other day, and I was wondering why I really don't like the little drummer boy. Speaking to a friend of mine he said the same thing, and even created a poem against the drummer boy being attacked by a ninja. I was quite taken by the idea, so here is my ninja/drummer boy carol:


Silent night, Holy night,
Drummer comes, Ninja strike;
Round house turning, kicks in flight,
Drummer boy, so tender and piled
Runs with heavenly pace
Runs with heavenly pace

Silent night, holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight
Ninja bolts from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Go - Ninja
Boy, the drummer is torn,
Boy, the drummer is torn

Silent Night, Holy Night,
Son of drum, evil little blight,
Random blasts from ninjas quick mace
With his speed, drum boys losing face
Ninja, you've got such mirth
Ninja, you've got such mirth

Silent Night, Holy night,
No drums sound, it's alright,
As the ninja does his ninja-thing
Drummer boy, has lost his drummer bling
Christ the saviour is born
Christ the Saviour is born.

We caught nothing! ( not even in the nightclubs later :-) !! But exmouth is lovely. And DK and Anna were great hosts.
We later went surfing in Croyd in our full wetsuit gear. Yay English weather.
