Christmas Time.
We waited all through the year, For the day to appear. When we could be together in harmony, You know the time will come. Peace on earth for everyone, And we can live forever, In a world where we are free, Let it shine for you and me. Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, That makes you wish it was Christmas everyday. See the joy in the children’s eyes, The way that the old folks smile, Says that Christmas will never go away. We’re all as one tonight, Makes no difference if you’re black or white, ‘Cause we can sing together, in harmony. I know it’s not too late, The world would be a better place, If we can keep the spirit. More than one day in the year, Send a message loud and clear, Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, That makes you wish it was Christmas everyday. To see the joy in the children’s eyes, The way that the old folks smile, Says that Christmas will never go away. It’s the time of year when everyone’s together, Celebrate here on Christmas day, When the ones you love are there, You can feel the magic in the air, You know it’s everywhere. Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, That makes you wish it was Christmas every day. See the joy in the children’s eyes, The way that the old folks smile, Says that Christmas will never go away. Something about Christmas time, Something about Christmas time, That makes you wish it was Christmas everyday. To see the joy in the children’s eyes, The way that the old folks smile, Says that Christmas will never go away. Please tell me Christmas will never go away.
Thurles Christmas lights will be officially switched on at 6:00pm sharp, on Friday evening next, December 6th 2024. The lighting ceremony will take place in the centre of Liberty Square, with staged live music; same starting at 5:30pm, and continuing until 7:00pm.
Santa will be also in Thurles on Friday December 6th, in Thurles Tourist office(on Slievenamon Road).
We hear also that a Santa Grotto will be open at the above stated Tourist Office in the town, beginning each Saturday; starting from December 7th, and operating between the hours of 2:00pm and 4:00pm. (Kids, don’t you worry about the lack of parking on Liberty Square, in Thurles; Santa always parks on the roof.)
Parents Do Note: A small appearance fee (€3.00) will be charged for this Santa Grotto service, to all children attending, (obviously to cover the cost of feeding carrots to Santa’s reindeer).
Q. Can you guess what Mrs. Santa Claus said to Santa when she looked up at the sky last Christmas Eve? A.“Looks like rain dear”.
Q. What do you call Santa when he’s wearing his ear muffs? A. You can call him anything you like; sure he can’t hear you.
Q. And while we are on the topic, how is Christmas like a day at the office? A. You do all the work, and that fat guy, in the suit, gets all the credit.
Q: What goes “oH oH oH” at Christmas? A: Santa walking backwards.

That’s the Way That the World Goes.
I know a guy that’s got a lot to lose, He’s a pretty nice fellow, but kind of confused, He’s got muscles in his head ain’t never been used, Thinks he own half of this town.
Started drinking heavy, gets a big red nose, Beats his old lady with a rubber hose, Then he took her out to dinner, bought her new clothes, That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
That’s the way that the world goes ’round, You’re up one day, the next you’re down, It’s half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna drown, That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
I stood in the bathtub a counting my toes, When the radiator broke, water all froze, I got stuck in the ice without my clothes, Naked as the eyes of a clown.
I was crying ice cubes, hoping I’d croak, When the sun come through the window, the ice all broke, I stood up and laughed, thought it was a joke, That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
That’s the way that the world goes ’round, You’re up one day, the next, you’re down, It’s half an inch of water and you think you’re gonna drown, That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
That’s the way that the world goes ’round, You’re up one day, the next, you’re down, It’s a ‘happy insalata’ and you think you’re gonna drown, That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
That’s the way that the world goes ’round. That’s the way that the world goes ’round.
Vocals: The late American country music singer, songwriter and guitarist Noble Ray Price(1926 – 2013). Lyrics: American country music songwriter Sonny (James) Throckmorton(member of the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame).
I Wish I Was Eighteen Again.
At a bar down in Dallas an old man chimed in, And they thought he was out of his head, And all being young men, they just laughed it off, When they heard what the old man had said. He said, I’ll never again turn the young ladies heads, Or go running off in to the wind. I’m three quarters home, from the start to the end, And I wish I was eighteen again. Oh I wish I was eighteen again, And going where I’ve never been, Now old folks and old oaks standing tall just pretend. I wish I was eighteen again. Now time turns the pages and life goes so fast, The years turn the black hair all grey. I talk to some young folks, but they don’t understand, The words this old man’s got to say. Oh I wish I was eighteen again, And going where I’ve never been. Now old folks and old oaks standing tall just pretend, I wish I was eighteen again. Oh I wish I was eighteen again.
