Here We Come Squidoo-d-ling
Here we come Squidoo-d-ling among the leaves so green;Here we come creating things, the fairest to be seen.
Love and joy come to you, and to you our SquidYULEs, too.
And now we're selling and selling our stuff it moves so fast
There's ano-ther sa-ale for me - oh my this a blast.
We are not just hack writers who churn out chaffe and trash;
But we are your fellow lensmasters whom you have seen before.
Here we come Squidoo-d-ling among the leaves so green;
Here we come creating things, the fairest to be seen.
Love and joy come to you, and to you our SquidYULEs, too.
And now we're selling and selling our stuff it moves so fast
There's ano-ther sa-ale for me - oh my this a blast.
We have our little CPUs with lots of megs and gigs;
We use them to find jpegs and info oh so rare.
Here we come Squidoo-d-ling among the leaves so green;
Here we come creating things, the fairest to be seen.
Love and joy come to you, and to you our SquidYULEs, too.
And now we're selling and selling our stuff it moves so fast
There's ano-ther sa-ale for me - oh my this a blast.
God bless the Seth and Megan of this house, likewise the Kimberly, too;
And all the little surfers who to our lenses are so drawn.
Here we come Squidoo-d-ling among the leaves so green;
Here we come creating things, the fairest to be seen.
Love and joy come to you, and to you our SquidYULEs, too.
And now we're selling and selling our stuff it moves so fast
There's ano-ther sa-ale for me - oh my this a blast.
Love and joy come to you, and to you our SquidYULEs, too.
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God bless you and send you a Happy New Year

The Real "Here We Come A-Wassailin"
Interestingly enough, there aren't that many videos featuring this song: here are two I found though. The first is a karaoke instrumental version, the second is from a Perry Como special and you only get the first verse or so in the opening.
