You know The Christmas Alphabet (‘“C” is for the candy trimmed around the Christmas tree’, etc.), full of cloying sentiment. This version tells it as it is, featuring Auntie Maud (see Maud’s Dream above), the cat, overindulgence and so on, and finishing: ‘“S” is feeling sick from eating on and on and on— And sick at heart as well because the Christmas meaning’s gone.’ But the tune, which is newly composed even if it has similarities, is jolly.

You know The Christmas Alphabet (‘“C” is for the candy trimmed around the Christmas tree’, etc.), full of cloying sentiment. This version tells it as it is, featuring Auntie Maud (see Maud’s Dream above), the cat, overindulgence and so on, and finishing: ‘“S” is feeling sick from eating on and on and on— And sick at heart as well because the Christmas meaning’s gone.’ But the tune, which is newly composed even if it has similarities, is jolly.
