A song about a curious Catalan Tradition
LYRICS
When you come to Catalonia, round about Christmas time,
There are lots of cute traditions to make you sigh or smile,
But the one that might offend you, will be near the Christmas tree
There’s a guy taking a dump in the Christmas crib,
But that’s alright with me.
In the crib you'll find the whole wide world
From the shepherds to the Three Kings.
If it’s ornate there'll be a miniature town with a figure for every guild.
But for the one you might feel out of place, you have to look carefully
There’s a guy taking a dump in the Christmas crib,
But that’s alright with me.
For the Crib represents the moment that God came down to Earth
The star shone on, the angels sang, as Mary she gave birth.
But at that very instant to stress true humanity
Someone, somewhere was taking care of their necessities.
All over this fair country you'll see huge public displays
Cribs for all the family to bring a smile on these holidays,
The adults feel that it’s sacred, but the kids all look to see.
A guy taking a dump in the Christmas crib,
But that’s alright with me.
You see, the Crib represents the moment.....
