Original holiday song written by Devin Tait and originally performed at Nabu Winery, Thousand Oaks CA, December 2019. Recorded and released December 2020.

lyrics

I don't subscribe to religion
And I don't have any kids
I don't see snow in December
As in the days of my childhood I did
And I don't want any presents
So I shouldn't need a tree
But I'll put one up anyway
And deck the halls with holly

I'll bake some gingerbread men
And then I'll eat them
I'll sing some Christmas carols
And then repeat them
I'll dress my cat in a santa hat
And post it on the 'gram
To spread good cheer
To people far and near
Cause that's just who I am

I'm going to make the yuletide gay
I wouldn't want it any other way
A twinkle here and there, with fairy lights and flair
To mark the special days
I'm going to make the yuletide gay
And I'll say "Happy Holidays!"
'Cause folks have different reasons to celebrate the season
So let's all make the yuletide gay

Extend a little kindness to our neighbors
Gratitude to those who serve us for their labors
Let's make the season magical for every girl and boy
The easiest gifts on anyone's list are
Happiness and joy

I'm going to make the yuletide gay
I wouldn't want it any other way
A twinkle here and there, with fairy lights and flair
To mark the special days
I'm going to make the yuletide gay
And I'll say "Happy Holidays!"
'Cause folks have different reasons to celebrate the season
So let's all make the yuletide gay

Make the yuletide gay
I wouldn't want it any other way
A twinkle here and there, with fairy lights and flair
To mark the special days
I'm going to make the yuletide gay
And I'll say "Happy Holidays!"
'Cause folks have different reasons to celebrate the season
So let's all make the yuletide gay
Let's all make the yuletide gay
("Don we now our gay apparel
Fa la la la la la la")

Devin Tait Sacramento, California

Having transplanted himself from Kansas to California around the turn of the millennium, Devin Tait quickly found himself derailed from his original plan to join a boyband. Meeting a couple of guitar playing lesbians at karaoke led Tait to form the band Shitting Glitter with Amy Crosby and Von Edwards. After nearly a decade with the band, Tait decided it was time to branch out on his own. ... more
