"Bah, humbug!" No, 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 his number, but never the time
(Most of '81 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 24 days
Evergreens, sparkling snow, get this winter over with
Flashback to springtime, saw him again (hi)
Would have 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, until summertime
Out to the beach, Jim Smoak could've joined him
No, this time it was me
Sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar's just one page
And of course I am excited
Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it
(Christmas is off)
Oh no, you don't
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
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 R-S-V-P, no, thanks, no party lights
It's Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turned down all of my invites
Last fall, I had a night to myself
Same guy called, Halloween party
Waited all night for him to show
This time, his car wouldn't go (I'm sorry)
Forget it, it is cold, it's getting late
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind
Doing Christmas right this time
(Cool)
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 wandering eyes should appear
In the line is the guy I've been chasing all year
"I'm 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, honey
(Merry Christmas, baby)
Here it comes
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Hey!)
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 (merry Christmas)
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas (merry Christmas)
Couldn't miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas (merry Christmas)
Couldn't miss this one this year (yeah, I can ski)
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas (really?)
Couldn't miss this one this year (but I don't look like I ski?)
Merry Christmas, merry Christmas
Couldn't miss this one this year (well, I can ski)
Merry Christmas (so ski), merry Christmas (pump steamed just fine)
Couldn't miss this one this year
(cool)
(Ho-ho-ho)
