Asking Santa for a Little Solar Power
Those who may have tired of Christmas music, rejoice. For there are numerous take-offs on the carols of yore that reflect secular humanitarian values, like this hilarious one on solar energy:
Solar Carol
(Adam Austill, Court Dorsey, Charlie King, Marcia Taylor)
See the sun how bright it shines, on the nations of the earth
All who share this thing called life celebrate each day’s rebirth
(cho) So-o-o-o-lar power, inexpensive energy (2x)
Brother river so your hear how the valley calls you down
Send your rushing waters near, let the joyful hills resound
Sister wind we’ve heard on high sweetly singing o’er the plain
And the windmills in reply echoing their glad refrain
How we love complexity when the answer’s rather plain
Join the sun in jubilee, sing with us this joyous strain
