Self Driving Reindeer

about

A nod to Vulfpeck's "Christmas in L.A." with a little George Michael's "Freedom! '90" and Rupert Holmes' "Escape (The Piña Colada Song)" all rolled into one. Opening lines courtesy of co-writer and Jeb's dad Paul Colwell of Up With People fame.

lyrics

I remember that whole December sprucing up the sleigh
T’was a cold night under Northern Lights and I was almost on my way
The Mrs with her goodbye kisses gave me the perfect gift
Better than an Uber and it’s given me a Lyft

Sometimes Santa just wants to party
Sometimes it's nice to get a little naughty up in here
I go ahead and take myself a shot of rum
And make an elf a piña colada - yum!
Nobody's even got to steer

Self-driving reindeer
I get to sit here
Flying through the skies
Blissfully closing my eyes
I kick back a beer
And looking back on my year
Business is thriving since I left the driving
To self-driving reindeer

I got a responsibility like nobody else
But I’m always up for a good time gettin down with my bad self
Always so excited riding high up on the hog
But dining on milk and cookies never soaked up all the nog

Sometimes Santa just wants to party
Sometimes it's nice to get a little naughty in the stratosphere
The future’s here

Self-driving reindeer
I get to sit here flying through the skies, blissfully closing my eyes
I kick back a beer and looking back on my year
Business is thriving since I left the driving

The elves give me a long massage
And teach me how to decoupage
We're all binge watching Entourage
While mile-high Skyping Mrs Claus
Ole Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Now has a very shiny car
Cruising around with his eight best buddies

I got no whip to crack
I sit back relax and enjoy myself a beer
We’re going to coast to coast, let’s raise a toast to my, my, my

Self-driving reindeer
I get to sit here
Flying through the skies
Blissfully closing my eyes
I kick back a beer
Looking back on my year
Business is thriving since I left the driving
To self-driving reindeer
I get to sit here
Flying through the skies
Blissfully closing my eyes
I kick back a beer
Looking back on my year
Business is thriving since I left the driving
