1. It was the usual Santa creep / In late October
It was the usual Santa creep / Fleet Farm with holly
It was the usual Santa creep / Cashiers with antlers rang me up
I came for socks, and ended up with all this crap.
Merry Christhallowanksgivmas / Hear the checkout scanners ping
It’s the most wonderful quarter of the year.
Merry Christhallowanksgiftmas / Hear the Muzak angels sing:
Gorge yourself in excess this day-o.
2. It was the usual overload / Thanksgiving dinner
It was the usual overload / TsuTurkeynami
It was the usual overload / Three pie trifecta polished off
And after that, well, everybody felt like crap.
Merry Christhallowanksgivmas / Mindless snacking without end
It’s the most wonderful quarter of the year.
Merry Christhallowanksgivmas / Keep the insulin on hand (then)
Gorge yourself in excess this day-o.
3. It was the usual argument / A few days later
It was the usual argument / The battle Christmas
It was the usual argument / Some well-aimed cheap shots hit their mark.
I won, I think. But basically it felt like crap.
Merry Christhallowanksgivmas / Obligations sold as “fun”
It’s the most wonderful quarter of the year.
Merry Christhallowanksgiftmas / Visit A T M’s a ton (then)
Gorge yourself in excess this day-o.
