The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping (Long Version)

Bah, Humbug, now thats 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 twenty-four days
Evergreens, sparkling snow
Get this winter over with

Flash back to spring time, saw him again
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 'till summer time
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
Of course I am excited.
Tonight's the night I've set my mind
Not to do too much about it
