about
Dave wrote this song to help him remember his elf related duties. Thus far it has not helped. Don't listen to this song with your kids in the room - this one is just for the parents ;)
lyrics
Lyrics:
After the second consecutive night I forgot to move the Elf on the Shelf
I woke up thinking, “Oh no, I forgot to move the Elf on the Shelf again”
Well, after the third consecutive night I forgot to move the Elf on the Shelf, my kids were like, “Dad, he didn’t move again”
And my wife was like, “You have one job, one job
It’s move the Elf on the Shelf”
And I was thinking, “Who invented this Elf on the Shelf”
Who, who invented the Elf on the Shelf
Oh, stupid freakin’ Elf on the Shelf
And all my friends are posting on Facebook creative things they’re doing with their Elf on the Shelf
And I’m thinking, I’d be lucky if could remember to move the Elf from the coffee maker back to the shelf
On the fourth, fifth and sixth consecutive nights that I forgot move the Elf on the Shelf, I really, really tried hard to remember
I even wrote a sticky note to myself
But I had hockey that night, and after the game a couple guys said, “ Yo, Dave, do you want to go for chicken wings”
And when I got home I watched football
And then I fell asleep on the couch
And I completely forgot to move the stupid freaking Elf on the Shelf
Which led to the seventh consecutive night I forgot to move the Elf on the Shelf
My wife was like “Dave, this is actually pathetic”
Well after the eighth consecutive night that I forgot to move the Elf on the Shelf, my kids were like, “Dad, Santa’s not real is he”
And I was like, “NO, Santa’s not real, and neither is the elf on the shelf”
And now I don’t need to worry about moving the stupid freakin’ Elf on the Shelf anymore

Glacial Erratic is an energetic six-piece—with horns!— banjo-funk, rock-jam band from Ontario, described as “a party on-
stage” and “extremely entertaining.”
From iconic radio personality Jeff Woods: “Prog/jazz/twang/funk/funny, Glacial Erratic bring to mind Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver and make for a trippy listen on the hifi, and a good time live in concert. Nicest people too. Book em, Danno.”...more
