Looking for info for a Twelve Days of Christmas related recording



Hello. I'm looking for info on a recording I used to hear every
year(For some reason once they were taken over by ClearChannel they
stopped playing it) at Christmas time on my local Oldies station, WMJI
105.7 in Cleveland, 0H. The recording is of a guy with either an Irish
or British accent writing letters to his "true love" telling her of
the chaos that ensues after she literally sends him the twelve gifts
of Christmas. With each letter the birds and people being sent become
more overwhelming, the narrator's mother consumes growing amounts of
first alcohol, then lithium before she is finally put in "a home for
the mentally bewildered." He signs each letter "Yours,
Governors(pronounced GOOV-NURS)". The only bright spot is when he
thanks her for her generosity in sending the five gold rings. In the
last letter he ask her who the hell does she think she is and tells
her he is a broken man. The entire recording is spoken, it is not a
song.

Whew! Sorry for that long winded description but I want to give as
much info as possible because I'd really love to be able to hear this
again. I'm also looking for a Christmas song presumably titled "My
Sombrero's Too Big" and sung by someone sounding like Speedy Gonzalez
(from WB's Looney Tunes). Thanks for any help.
