Wreck The Halls
(sung to: Deck The Halls)
~
Wreck the halls with two cats running,
Fa-la-la-la-la...la-la-la.
Fur goes flying, lamps get done in,
Fa-la-la-la-la...la-la-la.
Tumbling swiftly down the stairway,
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la,la,la.
Woe to those who get in their way,
Fa-la-la-la-la...la-la-la.
-- Unknown
"The trouble with sharing one's bed with cats is that they'd rather sleep on you than beside you."--Pam Brown
No one knows where the expression "to grin like a Cheshire cat" originated, but it wasn't with Carroll. The Cheshire cat is a well-known character in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but the expression, meaning a sneering smile that shows the gums, existed long before he wrote the book. There is no such breed of cat.
