Don't you wish it was Christmas?
The best time of the year
Cold wind blows
And mistletoe
And fa la la la la la la in your ear
But the kids are all crying
The tree is on fire
The gifts all got lost in the mail
Your mother's upset
Your father's is a wreck
And the gates of hell have prevailed
I can't believe that there are twelve whole days
I'm packing up on Day Two and running away
To find...
A Merry Christmas!
Don't you wish it was it was Christmas?
Don't you wish it was Christmas?
The best time of the year
All that snow
And mistletoe
And "Joy To The World" in your ear
But the gift you threw in the fireplace
made strange colors as it quickly burst into flames
The answer machine is filled with the screams
of the sister's perpetual blame
Do we really have to do things this way?
Next winter I believe I'm going to pack it up and run away
Just run away... to a place...
Where they have Christmas!
Real Christmas!
Don't you wish it was Christmas?
Really Christmas?
Well, we know it could be worse...
Oh on our... Fa la la la
Don't you wish it was Christmas?
Why can't it be Christmas?
