* "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", but it's the early draft about struggling not to get conquered by Nazis
* "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas", but they offhandedly mention cell phones at some point
* "The First Noel", but pronouncing Israel the modern way

* "Wonderful Christmastime", but it's about a witch coven trying to pretend that the thing they're doing is a Christmas party
* "Silent Night", but it's uncomfortably horny (for bonus points, change none of the lyrics)
