Melancholy... not Jolly

lyrics

Well, you know that I’ve been drinking - and you know that I’m not all right
But if you get home before I’m too far gone, we can watch “It’s A Wonderful Life”
Yeah, I get like this Christmas – I Blame it on the flashing lights
And the baby Jesus and the Santa Claus and the fact that everybody’s so nice
But I hate the snow, and I hate the bells
Just want to sit alone and listen to Elvis sing “Blue Christmas”
And I don’t want to go, to the family Christmas show
going through the motions – trying to feel emotion.
When you bought my Christmas present - I hope it was on sale
The economy will not collapse, if you didn’t pay retail
Shopping, shopping, Christmas shopping
Christmas mania, Christmas morning
Shopping, shopping, Christmas shopping
All the stores are open later…
Stick a chicken in a duck – stick that duck inside a turkey
eat it up, still not enough… we want more… we want more…
I hate the snow, and I hate the bells
Just want the Pogues and Kristy MacColl to sing “Fairytale of New York”
Well, you know that I’ve been drinking - and you know that I’m not all right
But if you get home before I’m too far gone, we can watch “It’s A Wonderful Life”
