Ding Dong
That Joe Payne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis
Yeah
Ladies and gentlemen
With a special announcement
Christmas just came early, mother suckers
And have I got a present for you
Let's go
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Yeah
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Get with this
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Come on
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Hit it
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ring the bell
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Give 'em hell
(Ding dong, ding dong)
This Noel
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Yell: Ding ding
Sleigh bells ring
That Joe Payne, do your Christmas ting
I've got some friends here that need introducing
Under the mistletoe you'll find them cruising
The Christmas cheer arrives once they start using
Another party trick to keep things moving
(Ding dong, ding dong)
(Ding dong, ding dong)
(Ding dong, ding dong)
(Ding dong, ding dong)
There ain't no rules here, so be nice or naughty
Kids of the 90s now approaching 40
You must be thirsty, so call me 'Niagara'
I'll pour the drink to wash down your Viagra
You know it's Christmas when the bells start ringing
You know we're coming when you hear us singing
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Gloria, Hosanna in excelsis
This here is Mary-Jane, and she be smoking
Lights up just like a Christmas tree, and we ain't joking
Cos tis the season to be funking jolly
Fa la la la la la la la la
Have you met Molly?
And my man Charlie might not smell of roses
But he'll have snowflakes falling on your noses
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong
(Ding dong, ding dong)
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Glori-
Hold up
The days are shorter, and the nights are chilly
So put a movie on and come chill with me
And we can hang here 'til the sun starts rising
I think I love you, cos I'm empathising
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
I'm high
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
I'm high
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
I'm high
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
Ding dong, merry me
Hosanna in ecstasy
Yeah
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:
Ding dong! Merrily on high
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! Verily the sky
Is riven with angels singing:

The lyrics to That Joe Payne's song "Ding Dong" have a playful and humorous tone while referencing Christmas and the holiday season. The song begins with the traditional Christmas carol "Ding Dong! Merrily on High," which sets the joyful and festive atmosphere. However, the song quickly diverges from tradition as the lyrics shift to a more modern and irreverent theme.
The verses that follow introduce the "elf on the shelf" as the singer's alter ego, who announces that Christmas has come early and presents a gift to the listeners. The repetitive phrase "ding dong" suggests the ringing of bells and serves as a catchy chorus throughout the song.
The lyrics then mention friends such as Mary-Jane and Charlie, using playful wordplay to refer to the recreational drug and its effects. The song also references the 90s generation approaching middle age and emphasizes the carefree and fun-loving spirit of the holiday season.
The line "You know it's Christmas when the bells start ringing, You know we're coming when you hear us singing" highlights the association of bells and joyful singing with the holiday season. The song combines these traditional elements with a contemporary twist, creating a unique and entertaining experience for listeners.
Overall, "Ding Dong" is a lighthearted and unconventional Christmas song that celebrates the holiday spirit while injecting humor and modern references into the lyrics. It encourages listeners to embrace the festive atmosphere, let go of inhibitions, and enjoy the holiday season with a playful and jovial attitude.
