[00:48.109]"Bah, humbug" no, that's too strong
[00:50.242]'Cause it is my favorite holiday
[00:52.460]But all this year's been a busy blur
[00:54.137]Don't think I have the energy
[00:56.370]To add to my already mad rush
[00:58.447]Just cause it's 'tis the season
[01:00.558]The perfect gift for me would be
[01:02.251]Completions and connections left from
[01:04.475]Last year, ski shop
[01:06.625]Encounter, most interesting
[01:08.941]Had his number but never the time
[01:10.940]Most of '81 passed along those lines
[01:12.862]So deck those halls, trim those trees
[01:15.132]Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
[01:17.284]I just need to catch my breath
[01:19.306]Christmas by myself this year
[01:22.023]
[01:29.242]Calendar picture, frozen landscape
[01:31.211]Chilled this room for twenty-four days
[01:33.364]Evergreens, sparkling snow
[01:35.353]Get this winter over with
[01:36.809]Flashback to springtime, saw him again
[01:39.484]Would've been good to go for lunch
[01:41.547]Couldn't agree when we were both free
[01:43.437]We tried, we said we'd keep in touch
[01:45.661]Didn't, of course, 'til summertime
[01:47.815]Out to the beach to his boat, could I join him?
[01:49.855]No, this time it was me
[01:51.978]Sunburn in the third degree
[01:53.762]Now the calendar's just one page
[01:56.091]And, of course, I am excited
[01:58.012]Tonight's the night, but I've set my mind
[02:00.073]Not to do too much about it
[02:02.922]
[02:29.811]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[02:31.778]But I think, I'll miss this one this year
[02:33.791]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[02:35.676]But I think, I'll miss this one this year
[02:37.818]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[02:39.668]But I think, I'll miss this one this year
[02:41.804]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[02:43.698]But I think, I'll miss this one this year
[02:45.986]Hardly dashing through the snow
[02:47.734]'Cause I bundled up too tight
[02:49.961]Last minute have to do
[02:51.787]A few cards a few calls
[02:53.383]'Cause it's "RSVP"
[02:56.033]No thanks, no party lights
[02:58.132]It's Christmas eve, gonna relax
[03:00.136]Turned down all of my invites
[03:02.102]Last fall I had a night to myself
[03:04.257]Same guy called, Halloween party
[03:06.550]Waited all night for him to show
[03:08.416]This time his car wouldn't go
[03:10.579]Forget it, it's cold, it's getting late
[03:12.563]Trudge on home to celebrate
[03:14.716]In a quiet way, unwind
[03:16.740]Doing Christmas right this time
[03:19.641]
[03:26.942]A&P has provided me
[03:28.772]With the world's smallest turkey
[03:30.632]Already in the oven, nice and hot
[03:32.809]Oh damn! Guess what I forgot?
[03:34.854]So on, with the boots, back out in the snow
[03:37.017]To the only all-night grocery
[03:38.910]When what to my wondering eyes should appear
[03:41.073]In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year
[03:43.214]"I'm spending this one alone," he said
[03:45.242]"Need a break, this year's been crazy"
[03:47.135]I said, "Me too, but why are you?
[03:49.264]You mean you forgot cranberries too?"
[03:51.276]Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
[03:53.476]Caught on to what was happening
[03:55.514]That Christmas magic's brought this tale
[03:57.609]To a very happy ending
[04:00.700]
[04:27.299]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[04:29.293]Couldn't miss this one this year
[04:31.235]Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
[04:33.198]Couldn't miss this one this year
