Bah Humbug, now that's too strong!
’Cause it is my favorite holiday
But all this year's been a busy blur
Don't think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush
Just ’cause it's 'tis the season
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left from
Last year
Ski shop
Encounter - most interesting
Had her number but never the time
Most of '21 passed along those lines
So deck those halls, trim those trees
Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
I just need to catch my breath
Christmas by myself this year
Calendar picture, frozen landscape
Chill this room for twenty-four days
Ever-greens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with!
Flash back to spring time saw her again
Woulda been good to go for lunch
Couldn't agree when we were both free
We tried, we said we'd keep in touch
Didn't of course - 'til summertime
Out to the beach to her boat could I join her?
No, this time it was me
Sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar’s just one page
Of course I am excited
Tonight’s the night I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
But I think I’ll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
But I think I'll miss this one this year
Hardly dashing through the snow
’Cause I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-dos
A few cards
A few calls, because it's RSVP
No, thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turn down all of my invites
Last fall I had a night to myself
Same girl called, Halloween party
Waited all night for him to show
This time her car wouldn't go
Forget it it's cold, it's getting late
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way unwind
Doing Christmas right this time
A&P has provided me
With the world's smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh damn! Guess what I forgot
So on with the boots back out in the snow
To the only all night grocery
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
In the line is that gay I've been chasing all year
'Spending this one alone,' he said
'Need a break. This year's been crazy'
I said, 'Me too, but why are you—
You mean you forgot cranberries too?'
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy ending
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year
