lyrics

How's it December?
It was just September
Wait I hate them too,
The folks who ask where the time went

I have no reason
To question this season
I just had a list
And not a single thing on it's been checked

I force the spirit with a couple spirits
One too many saw me join up with some carolers
Then things got ugly even the kids turned on me
Who knows the second verse to "Wish You a Merry Christmas" anyway

(Chorus)
And it's the holidays and I can't get myself from this mess
Yeah it's the holidays and I can't get myself out this mess

I make some cocoa while we watch Jingle All the Way
Swear to Sebby its Sinbad's best work to date
I drink the cocoa yeah I drink the cocoa
But can tell that Sebby thinks that Sinbad peaked as Mr. Wheat

(Chorus)
+
I used to think that someone's listening
used to pretend that someone's there
used to believe that someone's listening
used to believe that someone cared

(bridge)
so what's wrong with me?
walked by my tv screen
and i heard Linus speak
those words used to ring for me

now i get why it sneaks
it comes and goes on me and these
each melody
now they all sound the same to me

deck the halls with bows of holly
jingle bells jingle balls
hark the herald angels sing
first noel first noel

joy to the world
i'd wish you a merry christmas but i'd lie
silent night
on the 12th day of christmas my true love walked on me

(chorus)
+
I used to think that someone's listening
went to pretend somebody's there
used to believe that someone's listening
used to believe that someone cared
