MERRY CHRISTMAS, TYLER

The Ballad of Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill
lived up on a bullet hill
did whatever was their will
did Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill
sitting by their windowsill
found themselves with time to kill
did Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

'I would like to take a trip'
said Bullet Bette to Bullet Bill
she was tired of sitting still
and so, in truth, was Bullet Bill
he agreed and thus they flew
from their house into the blue
perfect flying weather, too
but they had something else to do

Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill
had an evil mission, still
portents that they must fulfill
did Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

'after all we can't forget'
said Bullet Bette to Bullet Bill
'that we have not exploded yet
'and there are people still to kill'

Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill
flying toward a far-off mill
so far north they felt a chill
did Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

'Bullet Bette' said Bullet Bill
'I am feeling rather ill'
snow was blowing 'round them still
round Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill

'we cannot stop now' she said
'Santa's house is straight ahead'
there indeed was Santa's shed
and stationed near it, Santa's sled

'we must blow them up!' she cried
so Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill
launched themselves, blew up, and died
but not before they'd had their fill

all the presents, blown to dust!
all the stockings, burned to sand!
all the Christmas turkey, bust!
Christmas doomed throughout the land
'or at least, at any rate'
said Santa Claus, a grizzled vet
'it might be a few days late'
but he would not surrender yet
to Bullet Bill and Bullet Bette

after working long and hard
for seven days, vacation barred
Santa Claus made all-new gifts
and of course this Christmas card.

'Christmas has been saved,' he said
but he felt a faint regret
not for Christmas, nearly dead,
but Bullet Bill and Bullet Bette

'they were wrong,' he said, 'but still'
'they possessed a mighty will'
'not to mention fearsome skill'
'that Bullet Bette and Bullet Bill'

The End
