Lyrics

[Verse 1] Christmas morning in the back of the old family Ford With my feet dangling wondering when they might grow to the floor Pumpkin pie wrapped in foil And gifts wrapped in newspaper Ringing the bell of my grandmother's door All the memories that the seasons store, hey [Verse 2] Christmastime, like a rhyme at the end of the year A familiar, a constant, that makes all of life's changes clear Well, it's a long way to go From yuletide to sunshine through fiery red fall One last dash to the mall And in a flash, it all slows down again [Pre-Chorus] And we've comе round again [Chorus] Christmastime What a wonderful time-tripping holiday Wе are windswept and dazed From the last weird trip round the Sun [Post-Chorus] Some come by walker and some come by pram One drives his mid-life crisis Trans Am And me in the corner here, nursing a dram And I'm feeling fine, it's Christmastime Oh, yeah [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Precious moments like these, they mean the world to me Listen, you're all fuckin' freaks, but we're family So we do what it takes to be in one place, if just for a day [Chorus] Ah, Christmastime What a wonderful, bittersweet holiday We arrive half alive From the last weird trip round the Sun [Post-Chorus] So let's drink to old Baxter who snored in his chair Let's mourn for the nephews and the loss of their hair There's buns in the oven, there's change in the air And I'm feeling fine, it's Christmastime Oh, yeah Oh, yeah [Outro] Yeah Could you go to the kitchen and bring your drunk daddy a PopTart?
