A snow storming Christmas anthem from The Damned, sleigh bells, "ho ho ho's" , a verse about each member of the band, and a sing a long backing vocals with the phrase
Here comes uncle Nick
Let's give him some stick
You'd never have got this from The Clash, but you would from the Sex Pistols (well, Cook and Jones anyway) who teamed up with Phil Lynott and Scott Gorham from Thin Lizzy formed The Greedies - short for Greedy Bastards and cracked out a festive fretfest called 'A Merry Jingle'.

Oh lordy it's only a couple of weeks away. I can feel my strength sapping already...
Great post though mate, despite being grot n' grog!
Two weeks today AV - you better got on the shopping sharpish.
I'll have plenty more festive frolics to come soon and possibly a mondo merry mixmas if I can sort it in time
i'd forgotten all about the greedies - what a bloomin' row

I'm a bit partial to Cook & Jones in the Professionals too. A couple of great singles.
I've got a copy of the Sniveling Shits doing Sanity Claus from '79 knocking around somewhere too.
Xmas punk? The Yobs (Boys) rings a jingle bell in my jaded memory bank somewhere.

The Greedies will be back soon with even more rock n racket.

Good to see you on Planet Mondo The Professionals album is a winner - the CD re - release includes a great version of White Light/White Heat.
For more panto Punk, Stiff Little Fingers did a live version of 'White Christmas', on the B side of 'At The Edge'and The Exploited used Jingle Bells for a about track Mods might've been called 'Hug a Mod' (or something similar)
