They’re auntie Carols favourite songs and they’re the only ones we let her go door to door to sing once a year. Mom said that’s because the other ones she likes are dirty pirate jigs.

Is it Carol from H.R.? Because there is no Carol in H.R. This place is a goddamned ghost town.

You see they’re all named after an amazing composer named Carlos, but he signed his name so terribly on the compositions that people thought it said Carols. Once it was all figured out it was too late as people were used to calling them carols. That’s why you need to learn your cursive and writing, so it doesn’t happen to you.
