lyrics

Twee-folk absurdists and EB sibling superstars Love Note to Dexter shine a little starlight on this big beautiful ballad from their 2020 holiday EP "Merry Christmas, Boney Bob!" Turning the holiday songbook on its head and borrowing lyrics and sentiments from classic carols and traditions, "Followed Yonder Star" has all the makings of a moody-yule nu-classic and is one their least completely bizarro holiday offerings.

Jingle all the way
One horse open sleigh
Hear the carollers
From the front doorway

Fireside is bright
Not so silent night
Pop-punk festive hymns
Scented candlelight

Ribbons, bells, and bark
Herald angels hark
Beat the blizzard here
Followed yonder star

Jingle all the way
Floats stacked up with hay
Cider on the stove
Make the yuletide gay

Some say let it snow
I’d agree and so
We’re out freezing by
Winter’s moonlight glow

Ribbons, bells, and bark
Herald angels hark
Beat the blizzard here
Followed yonder star

Jingle all the way
Time to celebrate
Put the coffee on
‘Cause it’s Christmas Day
