I know this song is technically about Jesus but good grief this is a horrible lyric. Worst, overplayed Christmas song, IMO

Somehow, I thought it was going to be about Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's time with the Gooners...

Somehow I thought this was going to be about Entwistle and Moon.

It’s been changed in newer versions so kids don’t have to say arse.

Christ Is Born Today still has “ox and arse before him bow” in it.

And what it needs more of is drums.

Why vocalize ba rum ba bum bum...when playing actual drums might be more authentic.

Even the inspiration of the song sucks. Kid is too poor to buy a gift for a baby trying to sleep, and the dumbass think to himself that what the baby and his mom need more than anything is...a drum solo.
