For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the greatness of his government and peace
    there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
    and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
    with justice and righteousness
    from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
    will accomplish this.

Isiah 9, New International version

Merry Christmas, Alabama
Merry Christmas, Tennessee
Merry Christmas, Louisiana
To St. Barth’s and the Florida Keys

Merry Christmas, Mississippi
Where I started this wild and crazy run
Such a long way from that first birthday
Merry Christmas, Everyone

And Merry Christmas, Colorado
Though far from you all I have roamed
“Tis the season to remember
All the faces and the places that were home

“Tis the season to remember
And to count up all the ports of call I’ve known
And to thank his mercies tender
For I’m never far from home

Merry Christmas to my saints and guardian angels
Who protect me as I roam
All the faces and the places that were home

Guess my life’s moved at near light speed
Since I started this wild and crazy run
Such a long way from that first birthday
Merry Christmas, Everyone

– Jimmy Buffet, Merry Christmas, Alabama

Jimmy Buffet’s birthday is December 25.

Closing Time

Closing time, open all the doors,
And let you out into the world,
Closing time, turn all of the lights on,
Over every boy and every girl.

Closing time, one last call for alcohol,
So finish your whiskey or beer,
Closing time, you don’t have to go home,
But you can’t stay here.

I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home.

Closing time, time for you to go out,
To the places you will be from,
Closing time, this room won’t be open,
Till your brothers or your sisters come.

So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits,
I hope you have found a friend,
Closing time, every new beginning,
Comes from some other beginning’s end, yeah.

I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home.

Closing time, time for you to go out,
To the places you will be from.

I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home.

I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
I know who I want to take me home,
Take me home.

Closing time, every new beginning,
Comes from some other beginning’s end

Look, mister, there’s… two kinds of dumb, uh… guy that gets naked and runs out in the snow and barks at the moon, and, uh, guy who does the same thing in my living room. First one don’t matter, the second one you’re kinda forced to deal with.

– Lines spoken by George to Coach Norman Dale in the 1986 movie Hoosiers
