Lyrics
The Christmas Blues
Well it all starts, on Thanksgiving day
Chaos in, a familiar way
The sales are starting, at six O- Clock
The lines are already around the block
Those crazy crowds, and everybody?s acting rude
(Everybody?s so rude)
I got the on sale, long line, rude people Christmas blues
We got, traffic jams, and lots full up
Thousands of people, shopping for stuff
I got a Christmas list, that?s as long as my arm
Gotta go in the hole, with the plastic card
Well Christmas season doesn?t really make me shout, Ho, Ho, Ho
(Ho, Ho, Ho to you)
I got the traffic jam, overcrowded, in the hole Christmas blues
CHORUS
Blues, blues, Christmas blues
I got the blues, blues, Christmas blues
Every year I get the Christmas blues
So you better watch out, cause it can happen to you
I got the every year, ongoing, Bah Humbug Christmas blues
Cheesy arrangements, of the same old songs
Christmas TV specials, on from dusk to dawn
I gotta buy a tree, GEEZ how much this year!!
And this is what they call, Christmas cheer
Gotta string up the lights, there?s always more work to do
(Always more work to do)
I got the cheesy song, TV special, always workin Christmas blues
Let?s break out the egg nog, and grandmas fruit cake
What a miserable way, to pack on the weight
Santa better bring me, a gym this year
Cause my last belt hole, is drawing near
No wonder everybody?s resolution is weight to lose
(Everybody?s got weight to lose)
I got the egg nog, fruit cake, gaining weight Christmas blues
CHORUS
Bridge
Well, I used to look forward to waking up on Christmas day
But as time goes on, I wanna sabotage Santa?s sleigh
(What can I say)
Up north the powers out, and they?re shoveling snow
Only 3 more blizzards, this year to go
Down south they?re tryin, to beat the heat
Forecast says 92 and rainy on Christmas eve
It?s funny how the weather can dampen your Christmas mood
(Hot and Rainy, and thirty below)
I got the power out, snow shovel, hot and rainy Christmas blues
CHORUS (twice)
I got the on sale, long line, traffic jam, overcrowded,
Cheesy song, always workin, fruit cake, gaining weight,
Bad weather, every year, Bah Humbug Christmas blues
