The band's lineup fluctuated significantly over their first nine years, though founding members Steven Ronald "Stevo" Jensen, guitarist Jan Nils Ackermann, and first consistent drummer Joe Escalante remained regular fixtures. Of the original members only Escalante has remained through all incarnations of the band. The current lineup of Escalante, Dave Quackenbush, Warren Fitzgerald, and Josh Freese has remained intact since 1990 and is considered by most fans to be far removed from the band's early 1980s incarnation. Since 2002 Escalante has released all of the band's albums through his Kung Fu Records label, with Fitzgerald generally producing.

"c" is for your little clit when i go down beneath. "h" is for your pubic hair that sticks between my teeth.

"s" is for your shitty asshole, clinkers 'round your bum, "t" is for your massive tits that make me want to cum. "m" is for masturbation, when you're not here with me. "a" is for the agony of catching your vd. "s" is for the syphilis that rots away my prick, christmas comes but once a year and makes me f**king sick. "s" is for the syphilis that rots away my ding-dong merrily along, the chapel bells are ringing. ding-dong merrily along, my f**king balls are swinging. whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa, whoa whoa....the chapel bells are ringing. (more whoa's) ...my f**king balls are swinging!

The letter C represents stimulating the clitoris during oral sex.
"h" is for your pubic hair that sticks between my teeth.
The letter H represents the pubic hair getting caught in teeth during oral sex.
"r" is for your rectum, that "i" f**k with my dick.
The letter R represents anal sex.

The repetition of this phrase emphasizes how the artist hates Christmas.

The letter S represents the less pleasant aspects of anal sex.

"m" is for masturbation, when you're not here with me.
The letter M represents the act of masturbating alone.
"a" is for the agony of catching your vd.
The letter A represents the pain and discomfort associated with contracting a sexually transmitted infection.
"s" is for the syphilis that rots away my prick, christmas comes but once a year and makes me f**king sick.
The letter S is used again to emphasize the devastating effects of sexually transmitted infections and how they contribute to the artist's dislike of Christmas.
"s" is for the syphilis that rots away my ding-dong merrily along, the chapel bells are ringing.
The artist continues to complain about his STI, but now uses a more cheerful tone to mockingly contrast with the somber church bells.
ding-dong merrily along, my f**king balls are swinging.
The singer ends the song by reveling in his sexual exploits, again mocking the religious imagery of the season.
