The only summer-themed Xmas song I’m aware of is Hi-5’s “Santa Wear Your Shorts” which I had on tape as a 6 year old

Even many of their most beloved hits have lyrically benign power fantasies consciously void of political implication (We Will Rock You, We Are the Champions, Another One Bites the Dust)

“CBGBCD” could also be the name of a Sonic Youth guitar tuning
