'Tis the Season... Today's Lockout Carol

It's beginning to look as if it’s canceled
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look at the Twitter feeds, web site and paper leads
They’re leaving hockey fans feeling so low.

It's beginning to look as if it’s canceled
And hockey fans are sore
But the ugliest sight to see is the image that will be
Bettman’s face once more.

A pair of CCM skates and hockey camp dates
Is the wish of Barney and Ben;
Quick as a blink, it's out to the rink
Is the hope of Janice and Jen.
And hockey fans can hardly wait for games to start again.

It's beginning to look as if it’s canceled
Ev'rywhere you go;
There's a kid standing by the glass, missing a day of class,
Waiting for games that set his cheeks a-glow.


It's beginning to look as if it’s canceled;
The talks, they fell apart,
And the thing that will make it sad is the year that we'd have had
Would make glad your heart.
