You've probably noticed that Wear Your Helmet to Work Day is only a few weeks away.

 

Every other tier one holiday has carols attached to it, and we'd like to get Wear Your Helmet to Work Day on that level. It's our dream for radio stations and department stores across the land to blare the hymns of helmet day far and wide, crackling across blown speakers to help everybody remember that childhood magic they felt when they wore their first helmet.

To help the process along, we've written one song to get you started:

Check firewalls and try to quali
Fa la la la la, la la la la (fa la la la la, la la la la)
'Tis the season to beat folly
Fa la la la la, la la la la (fa la la la la, la la la la)
Don we now our safe apparel
Fa la la la la, la la la la (fa la la la la, la la la la)
Troll the ancient track day carol
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Fa la la la la, la la la la la la
Fa la la la la, fa la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la la la
Fa la la la la, fa la la la

See no blazing fuel before us
Fa la la la la, la la la la (fa la la la la, la la la la)
Close visors and engines roar-us
(Fa la la la la, la la la, fa la la la la, la la la)
Follow me behind the pace car
Fa la la la la, la la la la, fa la la la la, la la la la
While I tell of my fast race car
(Fa la la la la, la la la la)

Fa la la la la, la la la la la la
Fa la la la la, fa la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la la la
Fa la la la la, fa la la la

Fast are we, no car can pass us
Fa la la la la, la la la la (fa la la la la, la la la la)
Hail the lead car, lads and lasses
(Fa la la, la la la, la la la, la la la, fa la la, la la la, la la la la)
Sing we joyous all together

Fa la la la la, la la la la
Heedless of the marshall's better
Fa la la la la, la la la la (hey)

Fa la la la la, la la la la la la (oh)
Fa la la la la, fa la la la (oh)
Oh oh fa la la la la, la la la la la la
Fa la la la la, fa la la la

Check firewalls and try to quali
Fa la la la la, la la la la
'Tis the season to beat folly
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Don we now our safe apparel
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Troll the ancient track day carol
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fa la la la la, la la la la

La la la la, la la la la

Think your voice (or voices) could do it justice? Let us know, as we'd love for this to exist on more than just paper.

Think you have a better song for Wear Your Helmet to Work Day? Post it below, and maybe we can get a whole album together by the end of the thread.

I love how taking your junk out is no longer just a confidence flex. Now it's also an "im working from home" flex. Does that make it a meta-flex?
