5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I'm counting the cracks on the wall by my bed 

'Cause I can't get to sleep 

And my mother said 

To try counting sheep as they're jumpin' the fence 

But the fence has a hole 

And the sheep snuck out 

Their tails are wagging 

Back and forth in celebration 

Farmer Sam is calling out their names 

But he's yelling to loud and I can't get to sleep 

And it's all on account 

Of those runaway sheep 

Now they're out in the woods eating ice-cream and cake 

Dancing 'round and around 

That's why I'm awake 

Unless I'm dreaming 

This is all to silly to be really happening 

They've all got party hats 

Every one of those sheep has a bell on it's neck 

Going ring-a-ding-ding 

I'm a nervous wreck 

They're ringing so loud 

Tell me why it won't stop 

A familiar sound 

Just like my alarm clock 

Hey no wonder 

I can hear Mom say good morning 

Time for breakfast 

Tell me what you dreamed
