Christmas is not all it's cracked up to be
|
Families fighting around a plastic tree
|
Nothing on the TV that you'd want to see
|
|
And it's hardly ever snowing the way it's meant to be
|
Like in white Christmas year after year
|
Bing Crosby, Bring Crosby, are you listening to me?
|
|
It doesn't often snow at Christmas
|
The way it's meant to do
|
But I'll still have a ball at Christmas
|
Because I'll be with you
|
|
The Christmas message was long ago lost
|
Now it's all about shopping and how much things cost
|
It's meant to be goodwill as well as synthetic fun
|
What is this year's festive number one
|
|
It doesn't often snow at Christmas
|
The way it's meant to do
|
But I'll still have a ball at Christmas
|
Because I'll be with you
|
|
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
