"The Twelve Days of Christmas" (sometimes spelled "The 12 Days of Christmas" or just "12 Days of Christmas") is a Christmas song first created in 1780 but popularized by English singer Frederic Austin in 1909, who added lyrics that have varied throughout the years. As a staple of the holiday season, it has been recorded by several recording artists since then. As such, parodies of the song have also been made and have gained their own popularity to the point of playing on the radio in junction with the basic recordings for Christmas. It can be either a few bridges of the song heard or indeed the full twelve days of Christmas in the new song. The song could also be deconstructed on occasions- after all, who willingly gives birds and people as Christmas gifts? Sub-Trope of Song Parody. See also Chaos of the Bells, We Didn't Start the Billy Joel Parodies, Filk Song and List Song. An example of Counting Song. For the Sister Trope stock Christmas snowclone parodies, see Yet Another Christmas Carol, How the Character Stole Christmas, Christmas Every Day, Gift of the Magi Plot, The Parody Before Christmas, and It's a Wonderful Plot. |

The Simpsons: The couch gag for one of a later Christmas episode was the family singing a parody of the song. Double-subverted at the end of "The Fight Before Christmas". Mr. Burns suggests to sing a Christmas carol, and Bart hopes it's not "12 Days of Christmas". Burns reassures him that it's not. Instead, it's the "original" version of the song with 39 days. |

Skylanders produced a version of the song to coincide with the fourth game in the series, Trap Team. At the sixth day, Broccoli Guy, who's hosting the song, decides to just introduce that game's roster of Skylanders and when the song resumes, he's skipped to the final day. | |

Married... with Children: Briefly mentioned in the Christmas Episode "It's a Bundyful Life" when the family (once again) snipe at Al for the usual happenings in their lives: Mentioned again in the following Christmas episode, titled "Christmas", where Al learns that the family ended up contributing money by getting several jobs for him, sung in the style of "The Twelve Days of Christmas" and ending with "And one job Santa-ing at the mall!" |

The Muppets of Sesame Street have performed the song three times. The first two times have the Muppets singing about gifts that would fit their personalities. The first time had a pair of Muppets that have since been phased out of the show, so they were replaced by Elmo and Telly the second time around. The highlight comes on the twelfth day, where Snuffy can't remember what was sent to him and the other Muppets are forced to skip his turn and continue on. The third time they did it, the song was primarily sung by Cookie Monster, with the gifts each replaced by different types of cookies. An animated segment uses the melody to describe zoo animals; "In the first cage at the zoo, this is what you see/One elephant drinking thirstily." It only goes up to five, however. |

PAYDAY 2 made a version of the carol for their 2014 Christmas update. There's lots of funny moments during the song- on the final verse, Twitch crashes the escape van (again) and Wolf's screaming causes the song to skip Hoxton's final turn. (The song does have some actual real life effects — the voice actor for Wolf damaged his vocal chords during the scream and left Overkill to found his own company.) | |

MAD had a Deconstructive Parody where the recipient of the gifts, Ms. Carol Yule, sends a letter each day to Mr. Truelove, in response to each gift. Only problem is, Carol lives in a 1-bedroom apartment in New York City. She appreciates the partridge in a pear tree (but has to put a chair into storage to accommodate it), and sort of likes the turtle doves (new carpet is "two-toned"). But by day 4, she is known as "that crazy bird lady" throughout the building, and is quite annoyed with all the gifts. After her fingers turn green from the five "golden" rings, all subsequent letters come either from her lawyer or other sources, such as a bill for downstairs neighbor's water damage from seven swans overflowing a bathtub, a court summons for operating a cabaret with nine dancers without a license, etc. It ends with her going insane, committing suicide, and leaving Mr. Truelove all the gifts in her will, much like the above example. | |

Phineas and Ferb: A version of this is performed on the holiday album Phineas and Ferb Holiday Favorites, with a different character starting off each day by telling Santa their request, and repeating their request each day after, starting with Phineas asking for a jet-powered rocket ski, then Candace asking for two busted brothers, then Isabella asking for a sash full of patches, and so on. Candace's line gets increasingly frustrated with each passing day, before saying "Ah, forget it!" on the twelfth. Dr. Doofenshmirtz takes the fifth day, initially demanding "THE ENTIRE TRI-STATE AREA!" but his demand gets more humble as the days go on, eventually asking for just one state, then five golden rings (for the sake of being traditional) before settling for some almond brittle. An abridged version of this song has aired on TV, with Doofenshmirtz interrupting the song during the third day to tell everyone to skip ahead to the twelfth day. |

Yet Another Partridge In A Pear Tree is a comedic radio play exploring the effect on the recipient of having to deal with 12 partridges, 24 turtle doves, 36 french hens, and so on. She's charmed by the first few gifts, then descends into increasingly desperate (and equally fruitless) attempts to get the young man to just stop already. | |

The Rock-afire Explosion did a cover of the song for the 1983 Christmas showtape. Highlights include Beach Bear constantly changing the third gift, including using the original gift on the final verse, as well as coming up with an extremely long gift for the final verse, Rolfe and Earl having an argument for the eighth gift when Earl can't think of one at first, Mitzi suggesting the same gift for both of her turns, and Looney Bird admitting that he's forgotten the second gift on the final verse. For Showbiz Pizza locations that replaced Rolfe and Earl with Uncle Klunk, who was retrofitted to be Santa Claus, a second version of the song was recorded with Rolfe and Earl's lines being sung by the Sun and the Moon. The two initially use the original gifts before Fatz requests that they be more creative. The Moon refuses, claiming that it’s against the copyright to change the song, and sticks to the original eighth gift, but the Sun complies and changes the seventh gift. |

She Loves Me has Twelve Days to Christmas. It quotes the original song in full, interspersed with increasingly-frantic scenes of holiday shopping for both the customers and staff of Maraczek's Parfumerie, as well as Georg and Amalia becoming friendlier to each other. | |

The Bedfellows has the Christmas Episode of its YouTube series "The Twelve Rapes of Christmas" and it's as full of dark comedy as the rest of the series. The short consists of Fatigue singing a parody of Twelve Days of Christmas listing presents Sheen gave Fatigue as well as acts of abuse Sheen inflicted on Fatigue. | |

Big Time Rush: During "Big Time Christmas", Griffin makes the boys record a spur-of-the-moment Christmas EP and needs some original songs on it. With Snoop Dogg, they record their own "Twelve Days of Christmas" parody, which swaps out the lines for things relevant to them; for instance, "6 geese a laying" becomes "6 hockey helmets", and "A partridge in a pair tree" becomes "A song for the Christmas EP." Unfortunately, just before they finished recording, Griffin forces them to scrap it, because Justin Bieber and 50 Cent just released their own version... The Fifty Days of Christmas. | |

Dark Sarah's "A Grim Christmas Story" is a comedic Murder Ballad that recounts, to the tune of "The Twelve Days of Christmas", how Sarah killed her cheating husband and threw him in the sea, then the milkman when he came by to talk to hubby, then the milkman's wife, then hubby's mistress, then some random guy who wanted to see hubby, and finally two cops who came looking for the milkman and his wife. | |

Plumbing the Death Star had an episode asking if they, the hosts, could survive all those gifts. Needless to say, it turns into chaos as they resort to trying to expand their yard to plant the pear trees, which results in a visit from the local council, to which they respond by cutting down the trees and making a barbecue of as many birds as they can catch (the swans take over part of the building), which gets animal rights groups angry... | |

Kingdom of Loathing: In the 2007 Crimbo event, the "Crimborg" that had taken over Crimbo Town guarded their base, the Sinister Dodecahedron, with monsters that were dangerous mechanical versions of the presents from "The 12 Days of Christmas". New ones were added with each day of the "Twelve Days of Mayhem" event, leading to players having to fight 12 stompers stopping, 11 stranglers strangling, 10 borgs a-beeping, 9 lasers lancing, 8 blades a-spinning, 7 swarms a-swarming, 6 geese a-laying, 5 golden rings, 4 killing birds, 3 Swiss hens, 2 turtle mechs, and a death ray in a pear tree before finally facing the mastermind behind the Crimborg, a reanimated Father Crimbo who was forcing the alien cyborgs to be more festive. | |
