I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

Patron Got Arrested For Drinking Here - Parody #13

Patron Got Arrested For Drinking Here
Written by CK
To the tune of "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"


Patron got arrested for drinking here
Tried to hide the bottle up his sleeve
You can lie and say it’s a banana
Sorry, but the guard doesn’t believe

He’d been trying to play leapfrog
And we begged him to walk slow
But he was hooked on that libation
Running into shelves - they fell like dominos

We said this was the final warning
But he reached in his backpack
Pulled out his giant liquor bottle
And continued to act like a maniac

Patron got arrested for drinking here
Tried to hide the bottle up his sleeve
You can lie and say it’s a banana
Sorry, but the guard doesn’t believe

The patrons came to watch the hoopla
Taking pictures with their cell’s
Watch him dance around empty halls
Drinking beer and run from the guard when he yells

Never boring when they break the law
Our branch gets lot and lots of flack
And we just can’t help but wonder
Should we help the guard chase him
He doubled back

Patron got arrested for drinking here
Tried to hide the bottle up his sleeve
You can lie and say it’s a banana
Sorry, but the guard doesn’t believe

Now he’s standing on the table
For that one he is way too big
If it breaks he’ll be a vandal
But he doesn’t care and takes another swig


He’s making a break toward the door
Better watch out for yourselves
That’s when the guard tries to convince
The man that he can’t hide out
In the shelves

Patron got arrested for drinking here
Tried to hide the bottle up his sleeve
You can lie and say it’s a banana
Sorry, but the guard doesn’t believe



Original Lyrics - Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and grandpa we believe

She'd been drinking too much eggnog
And we begged her not to go
But she forgot her medication
And she staggered out the door into the snow

When we found her Christmas morning
At the scene of the attack
She had hoof-prints on her forehead
And incriminating Claus marks on her back

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and grandpa we believe

Now we're all so proud of grandpa
He's been taking this so well
See him in there watching football
Drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel

It's not Christmas without Grandma
All the family's dressed in black
And we just can't help but wonder
Should we open up her gifts
Or send them back (send them back)

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and grandpa we believe

Now the goose is on the table
And the pudding made of fig
And the blue and silver candles
That would just have matched the hair on grandma's wig

I've warned all my friends and neighbors
Better watch out for yourselves
They should never give a license
To a man who drives a sleigh
And plays with elves

Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and grandpa we believe
