FM Singers spread holiday cheer

Members of the Western Washington University singing group FM Singers, along with a few other staff members and students, walked through campus on Wednesday, Dec. 16, singing well known Christmas carols, many of them with lyrics modified to fit WWU.

For example, here are the words to "Grey Christmas," written by Environmental Health and Safety's Bruce Boyer:

I’m dreaming of a grey Christmas

Just like the ones we always know

When umbrellas glisten, and children listen

To hear gutters overflow

 

I’m dreaming of a grey Christmas

With every cold capsule I take

May your Yuletide be far away

Because all our Christmases are grey
