"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,
Chilled this room for twenty-four days,

Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with!

Flashback to springtime, saw him again,
Would've 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 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, but 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

'Cause 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 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 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!

Needed new posters, so I bought them
I know the cost of stamps now
the thirty-first is when I pay the phone bill
I told them I don't even know anybody in Toronto

Everyday at seven I've been watching Walter
I've been reading more and looking up the hard words
I met people who get me on the guest list
My parents said that they would help me pay for grad school

You know I have never washed a sweater
I never knew when my hair was to long
I got the cab calls out of my hi-fi
I learned a lot since you've been gone
I've done a lot since you've been gone

Not bitter-beat the vicious cycle
Typecast as the model couple
I'm sorry but I don't feel awful
It wasn't the end of the world
I'm sorry I can't be helpless
It wasn't the end of the world

I know someone who really met Belushi
I fixed the toilet so it doesn't always run
I moved a chair over by the window
I feel better if my laundry's done

Getting by on less sleep then I used to
I had no trouble setting up a desk
I learned the reason for a three-pronged outlet
I got 100 on my drivers test

I got a trick to get them to deliver
I called the landlord when the water turned brown
Did you know I own some valuable records?
I've learned a lot since you've been gone
I've done a lot since you've been gone

No mad-beat a vicious cycle
Typecast as the model couple
I'm sorry that I never got suicidal
It wasn't the end of the world
I'm sorry I seem to be succeeding
It wasn't the end of the world

Thank you for the chance to grow up
I'm sorry but I wasn't defeated
It wasn't the end of the world
I'm sorry that I don't feel to awful
It wasn't the end of the world


[telephone rings]

I'm really fine... Everything's great.
I'm doing alright. Really, really everything's fine
What?
I'm doing alright. I'm doing alright. Everything's great
Sorry but, I'm fine. That's it.

The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
Theres no room
No space to rent in this town

Youre out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And youre not moving anywhere

You thought youd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

Its a beautiful day
Sky falls you feel like
Its a beautiful day
Dont let it get away

Youre on the road
But youve got no destination
Youre in the mud
In the maze of her imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesnt ring true
Youve been all over
And its been all over you

Its a beautiful day
Dont let it get away
Its a beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know Im not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See china right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Dont let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know Im not a hopeless case

What you dont have you dont need it now
What you dont know you can feel it somehow
What you dont have you dont need it now
Dont need it now
Was a beautiful day

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing
Ring ting tingle-ing too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling "You Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's go
Let's look at the snow
We're riding in a wonderland of snow
Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grand
Just holding your hand
We're gliding along with the song
Of a wintry fairy land
Our cheeks are nice and rosy
And comfy cozy are we
We're snuggled up together like two
Birds of a feather would be
Let's take the road before us
And sing a chorus or two
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop
Pop! Pop! Pop!
There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy
When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
These wonderful things are the things
We remember all through our lives

If I was a better man
Would fellow men take me to their earts
If I was a stronger man
Carrying the weight of popular demand
Tell me would that alarm her
I'd never harm her at all

If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her

If I was a wiser man
Would other men reach out and touch me
If I was a kinder man
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease her
I want to please her again

If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was her leader
On food of love from above I would feed her

If I was a poet
All my love in burning words I would show it
If I was her lover
Her eyes in kisses I would cover

Come here my baby
Oh, they can't touch you now
I'll keep you safe and warm
I'll never leave you at all
Come here my baby
Oh, they won't touch you
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease you
I want to please you again

If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her
If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was her leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love in burning words I would show it

Well, you broke my heart last Christmas Eve
When you told me good-bye,
And all year long I felt like
I was gonna die.
I missed every holiday this whole year through,
'Cause holidays just made me crazy cryin' over you.

But don't you feel guilty, now,
'Cause you can make amends.
You can make up for lost time as the year comes to an end
Darlin' this Christmas we'll really have some fun
We can take all the holidays and roll 'em into one.

So be my Valentine this Christmas and I'll be your Easter Bunny
We'll hop on down the bunny trail.
Life would be so sweet.
Yeah, we'll fix a big ol' turkey
It'll really be Thanksgiving,
'Cause monkey-face[?], I'm a basket case
When you say "Trick or Treat"

I'll explode like a firecracker on the fourth of July
If you come on down my chimney and play Santa Claus to me,
And we'll sing "Happy Birthday" and blow out all them candles.
Yeah, we'll hide all them eggs underneath that Christmas tree,
And I know we'll have a Happy New Year because
We'll have the greatest little Christmas ever was.

We'll have birthdays, Easter, good old Valentine's,
Thanksgiving and Halloween, and the Fourth of July.
I know we'll have a Happy New Year because
We'll have the greatest little Christmas ever was.

Solid, solid as a rock
That's what this love is
That's what we've got

Solid
Solid as a rock
And nothing's changed it
The thrill is still
Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot

Santa Baby






Santa baby, just slip a sable under the tree, for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be just as good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo bee doo

Santa baby, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
Been an angel all year
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, one thing I really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie and fill my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'X' on the line
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean on a phone
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry ... tonight


Please note that I'm picturing Heidi Klum singing this.

Time for toys and time for cheer,

Hurry Christmas, hurry fast,
Want a plane that loops the loop,
Me, I want a hula hoop,
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please Christmas, don't be late.
Okay fellas, get ready.
That was very good, Simon.
Naturally.
Very good Theodore.
Ahkhkhkh.

Please Christmas, don't be late.
We can hardly stand the wait,
Please Christmas, don't be late.

A lady stands before an open window
looking so far away
she can almost feel the southern winds blow
gently touching his restless day

He turns from his window to me
sad smile his apology
sad eyes reaching to the door

Daylight loses to another evening
still he spares me words goodbye
sits alone beside me fighting his feelings
struggles to speak but in the end can only cry

Suddenly it's so hard to find
the sound of the words to speak his troubled mind
so I'm offering ease to him as if to be kind

There's a train every day
leading either way
there's a world you know
there's a way to go
I soon believe it's just as well
this is my opening farewell

A child's drawings left there on the table
and a woman's silk is lying on the floor
I would keep them here if I were able
to lock you safe behind it's open door

Suddenly it's so clear to me
that I'd ask you to see what you may never see
now my kind words find their way back to me

There's a train every day
leading either way
there's world you know
got a way to go
I soon believe it's just as well
this is my opening farewell

This is my opening farewell.
