| Bah, humbug! |
| No, that’s too strong
|
| 'Cause it is my favourite 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 landscap
|
| Chilled this room for twenty-four days
|
| Evergreens, sparkling snow
|
| Gt this winter over with
|
| Flashback to springtime, saw him again
|
| Would’ve been good to go for lunch
|
| Couldn’t agree we were both free
|
| We tried we said we’d keep in touch
|
| Didn’t of course 'til summertime
|
| Out to the beach to his boat, could I join 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 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-do's
|
| 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
|
| 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 no! |
| 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 eye should appear
|
| In the line is that 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! |
| Merry Christmas!
|
| Couldn’t miss this one this year
|
| Merry Christmas! |
| Merry Christmas!
|
| Couldn’t miss this one this year
|
| Merry Christmas! |

|
| Couldn’t miss this one this year
|
| Merry Christmas! |

|
| Couldn’t miss this one this year
|
| Merry Christmas! |
| Merry Christmas!
|
| I 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! |

|
| Couldn’t miss this one this year
|
