lyrics

It’s Xmas Time Again

Thanksgiving was yesterday
The tinsel is on display
Colored lights are going up
The shopping crowd is getting rough
I’m digging thru the attic
For those cards I didn’t send
Get out the plastic Santa Claus
It’s Xmas time again

The merchants have sprung their traps
My basket is full of crap
The kiddies are getting wired
The parents are tense and tired
Stranded in a checkout line
That never seems to end
Get out the plastic money
Cause it’s Xmas time again

I’m getting frenzied.... and I
Just don’t have a reason
I’ve been waiting all year long
For Xmas season

Those specials are on TV
Right next to my plastic tree
Pine polyurethane
The dog thinks it’s his latrine
I chew a chunk of fruitcake
For hours and hours on end
Get out the plastic silverware
It’s Xmas time again

I’m getting frenzied... and I
Just don’t have a reason
I’ve been waiting all year long
For Xmas season

I’m getting frenzied… and I
Think I know the reason
I went down the rabbit hole
Last Xmas season

They’re singing of Peace on Earth
And songs celebrating birth
The air’s full of joy and cheer
I smiled back at my cashier
A little bit of kindness
Can go a long, long way
Take off that plastic smile because
It’s Christmas time today!
