CHRISTMAS IN LAS VEGAS 2013 by Richard Cheese Christmas in Las Vegas Decorate your tree with chips Let's roll a yo beneath the mistletoe While that angel strips Rudolph sold the sled, now he's betting on red In a casino made out of gingerbread Christmas in Las Vegas It's a trip! The wise men are rolling sevens The elves are doubling down Light a candle, and pull the handle I love that jingling sound Every showgirl and boy ride in a sleigh of joy Pulled by eight tiny tigers eating Siegfried & Roy Christmas in Las Vegas What a town! Santa brought me two aces I wonder if I should split? Hey waitress, bring me a drink, while I think What would Jesus hit? The strip lights are all twinkling There's no room at the inn But because 'tis the season They'll comp a suite for Mary at the Wynn! Christmas in Las Vegas It's Bethlehem with Bling! Let's hope the dealer brings four newborn kings 'Cause my baby needs a brand new pair of five golden rings Christmas in Las Vegas really swings! Cha cha cha ching I said Christmas in Las Vegas Really really swings! CHRISTMAS IN LAS VEGAS (original song by RICHARD CHEESE) written by Mark Jonathan Davis, published by IdeatownUSA Recordings (ASCAP), (C) Copyright 2006, 2013 Ideatown Entertainment / MJD.

HANNUKAH IN LAS VEGAS by Richard Cheese Hannukah in Las Vegas It's a festival of neon lights Bet a dollar, and eat some challah The strip is kosher tonight There's a menorah, on the Tropicana And a stripper wearing just a yarmulke Hannukah in Las Vegas Eight swingin' nights The Baruch Atah Adonai blessing Is sung by a showgirl choir When it's time to light the candles each night Penn & Teller set them on fire All the yentas make stops, at the Forum Shops And the tzimmes is made with Carrot Tops Hannukah in Las Vegas Try the lambchops (Aleph, Bet, Gimel, Dalet) Moses went to the Luxor To shoot craps with Pharaoh As he rolled the dice, he said real nice Let my people Yo! The cantors are playing poker They use chocolate coins for chips All the rabbis bet, on dreidel roulette And the casino moyel takes tips Hannukah in Las Vegas It's a real gelt trip! Well, the shamash here is The Stratosphere And David Copperfield makes the latkes disappear Hannukah in Las Vegas Mazeltov Sammy's watching from above I said Hannukah in Las Vegas What's not to love HANNUKAH IN LAS VEGAS (original song by RICHARD CHEESE) written by Mark Jonathan Davis, published by IdeatownUSA Recordings (ASCAP), (C) Copyright 2006, 2013 Ideatown Entertainment / MJD. www.richardcheese.com
