A Pious Parody

Homage rather than parody, The First Night Before Christmas echoes the poem by Clement Clarke Moore which is so beloved of Americans.

The First Night Before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through Bethlehem,
Joseph was searching for a room for them
He searched and he searched all round the town
But nowhere to stay for them could be found
So they went to a stable and in a bed made of hay
The Christ child was born on the first Christmas Day
