Lent, It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.

Apologies to Eddie Pola, George Wyle

It's the most wonderful time of the year.
With the kids wearing ashes,
and all getting lashes,
"Be of good cheer,"
It's the most wonderful time of the year.

There'll be prayers for the hosting,
martyrs for roasting and time for
shovelling out of the snow.
there'll be scary ghost stories and
tales of the glories of Lents
long, long ago.

It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be much quiet woeing
but hearts will be glowing,
because the Resurrection is near.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
