Lyrics
Bah, hum bug!
No, that’s too strong ’cause it is my fa v’rite hol i day.
But all this year’s been a bus y blur.
Don’t think I have the en er gy to add to my al read y mad rush just ’cause it is the sea son.
The per fect gift for me would be com ple tions and con nec tions left from last year, ski shop en coun ter, most in t’rest ing.
Had his num ber, but nev er the time.
Most of eight y one passed a long those lines.
So, deck those halls, trim those trees.
Raise up cups of Christ mas cheer.
I just need to catch my breath.
Christ mas by my self this year.
Cal en dar pic ture, fro zen land scape, chilled this room for twen ty four days.
Ev er greens, spar kl ing snow, get this win ter o ver with!
Flash back to spring time, saw him a gain.
Would ’ve been good to go for lunch.
Could n’t a gree we’re both free.
We tried, we said we’d keep in touch.
Did n’t, of course, till sum mer time, out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
No, this time it was me.
Sun burn in the third de gree.
Now the cal en dar’s just one page, of course I am ex cit ed.
To night’s the night, I set my mind not to do too much a bout it.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas, but I think I’ll miss this one this A & P has pride in me with the world’s small est tur key.
Al read y in the ov en, nice and hot.
Oh, damn!
Guess what I for got!
So on with the boots, back out in the snow to the on ly all night gro cer y.
When what to my won der ing eyes should ap pear?
In the line is that guy I’ve been chas in’ all year!
“I’m spend ing this one a lone,” he said.
“Need a break, this year’s been cra zy.” I said, “Me too, but what are you...
you mean you for got cran ber ries too?” Then sud den ly we laughed and laughed, caught on to what was hap pen ing.
That Christ mas mag ic’s brought this tale to a ver y hap py end ing.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.
Mer ry Christ mas, Mer ry Christ mas.
Could n’t miss this one this year.
