Story Behind The Song

Tried to write an anti Christmas song hence the title 'Cancel Christmas' it's the WORST time of the year but then I had an idea to turn it around to say Don't You 'Cancel Christmas' it's the BEST Time of the year!

Song Description

Guy gets dumped before Christmas so sings, you can Cancel Christmas, it's the worst time of the year. He then reflects on the good things he's missed whilst in the relationship and ends sings DON'T you Cancel Christmas it's the BEST time of the year, and he'll survive without her.

Lyrics

Cancel Christmas © 2019 Terry Sorfleet

Verse 1
Silence those damned sleigh bells
Tear holly off the wall
You can shred those carol sheets
They're no use to me at all
Throw away the Mistletoe
Cut down that Christmas tree
I've no one to kiss
Now that she left me
Chorus
You can cancel Christmas
It's the worst time of the year
You can cancel Christmas
Now that she's not here
You can cancel Christmas
'cause I feel like hell
Since she left
I'm an empty shell

Verse 2
Santa isn't welcome here
Say I'm not at home
And re-gift my presents
'cause I'm here all alone
Pull down all the bunting
Unplug those Christmas lights
Now she's gone
I've got lonely, silent nights

Chorus
You can cancel Christmas
It's the worst time of the year
You can cancel Christmas
Now that she's not here
You can cancel Christmas
'cause I feel like hell
Since she left
I'm an empty shell

Now wait a minute!

Bridge
Not done much - for a long time
Been out of touch - for a long time
Not shot Pool - for a long time
I've been a fool - for a long long time
No Guy's nights - for a long time
Or Drunken fights - for a long time
Not seen friends - for a long time
I'll make amends and have a Good Good Time

Chorus
So DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
It's the best time of the year
DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
Now my Old friends are here
DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
And tell that Jezabelle
I'll survive
And she can go to hell

Chorus
So DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
It's the best time of the year
DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
Now my Old friends are here
DON'T YOU cancel Christmas
And tell that Jezabelle
I'll survive
And she can go to hell

I'll survive
And she can go to hell

Merry Christmas Everybody.....
everybody but her!
