Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for December 24, 2021

That’s… not as old as the others (though age is relative). So the unicorns didn’t learn to tighten up their copyright law after the first round of plagiarism.

Here’s a blast from the past (2013):

(sung to the tune of “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”)

I want a Magic Unicorn for Christmas.

Only a Magic Unicorn will do.

Don’t want a troll, nor ugly gob-i-lin.

I cannot stand their BLÄARTING

or their nasty slobberin’.

I want a Magic Unicorn for Christmas.

I think that Santa Claus would like one, too.

He won’t need to sneak while filling gift requests;

the Unicorn could activate

her Shield of Boringness.

I can see it now: I’m out of bed on early Christmas morn.

I’ll be happy when I see, standing by the Christmas tree,

there’ll be a lovely Magic Unicorn!

I want a Magic Unicorn for Christmas.

Only a Magic Unicorn will do.

Don’t want a dog, nor ordinary horses.

I only like Magic “Unicornses.”

And Magic “Unicornses” like me, too!

Merry Christmas to all.

Are the songs that Marigold sung kinda like how Weird Al Yankovich parodies things?

If Merigold ever asks “Do you want to ROCK out?”, I suggest you say NO for your own safety.

Is there any human song (Christmas or otherwise) that is NOT originally based upon a unicorn song?

Rock on, Marigold!

Yeah whenever I hear Unicorn Rock, my mind goes to Home Alone 2 and Jingle All the Way:-D.

I’m starting to think that Marigold is just trolling Phoebe.

“… Jingle bell time/It’s a swell time/When you get to hear a unicorn neigh …”

Not much different, really.

Of all the other unicorns, you know you’re the mastermind!

Run run Marigold, Phoebe ain’t to far behind

Run run Marigold, Phoebe’s gotta make it to town(to buy some last minute Christmas gifts)
