Grandma got run over by a reindeer
– E wela a keda atropelá pa un renan
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
– Caminando pa kas for di nos kas Anochi Di Pasku
You can say there’s no such thing as Santa
– Bo por bisa ku no tin nada Manera Santa Claus
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe
– Pero pa loke ta trata mi i abuelo, nos ta kere
She’d been drinkin’ too much eggnog
– E tabata bebe muchu ponche di wowo
And we’d begged her not to go
– I nos a pidié pa no bai
But she forgot her medication
– Pero e la lubidá su medisina
And she staggered out the door into the snow
– I e muhé a sali bai pa e porta bai den nèi
When we found her Christmas mornin’
– Ora nos topa su mainta di Pasku
At the scene of the attack
– Na e sitio di e atake
She had hoof prints on her forehead
– E tabatin pegamento di pia riba su frenta
And incriminating Claus marks on her back
– I E marka inkriminatorio Di Claus riba su lomba

Now we’re all so proud of Grandpa
– Awor nos tur ta hopi orguyoso di nos wela.
He’s been takin’ this so well
– E tabata tuma esaki asina bon
See him in there watchin’ football
– Wak eynan mirando futbol
Drinkin beer and playin’ cards with cousin Mel
– Bebiendo biña i hunga karta ku primo Mel
It’s not Christmas without Grandma
– No ta Pasku sin abuela
All the family’s dressed in black
– E famia henter ta bisti di pretu
And we just can’t help but wonder:
– I nos no por evitá di puntra nos mes:
Should we open up her gifts or send them back?
– Nos mester habri nan regalonan òf duna nan bèk?
(Send them back!)
– (Enviá nan bèk!)

Now the goose is on the table
– Awor e ganso ta riba mesa
And the pudding made of fig, ah
– I e pudín ku ta traha di figo, ah
And the blue and silver candles
– I e kandela di blauw i plata
That would have just matched the hair in grandma’s wig
– Esey lo a coincidi cu e cabel di e peluca di e wela.
I’ve warned all my friends and neighbors
– Mi a advertí tur mi amigunan i bisiñanan
“Better watch out for yourselves
– “Mihor cuida boso mes
They should never give a license
– Nan no mester duna un pèrmit nunka
To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.”
– Un hòmber ku ta kore un trine i ta hunga ku goblin.”
