[TOMT][SONG] Novelty Christmas song about a guy whose wife leaves him over his elaborate Christmas light display that's synchronized to music

While driving around last night, my family came across a house with an elaborate holiday light display that included a message to tune to a specific low power radio frequency to watch the lights synchronize to the music. I tuned to the station and heard the most incredibly niche novelty song I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

It was a man singing a rock song that borrowed some melody from "Carol of the Bells". I don't remember any of the lyrics specifically, just that the chorus has to do with him synchronizing his Christmas lights to music. The song starts to go through the problems his Christmas decorating obsession causes him, including his super high utility bill and his wife giving him an ultimatum where he chooses his Christmas lights.

Now my three year old has been begging to listen to "house music" all day, and I can't find it.
