Christmas is Almost Here

Chorus

Christmas is almost here (x3)

Aaahhhggggrrr!

It's just five days till Christmas, I haven't done a thing

Don't even have a Christmas tree, I am panicking

Most lots are all sold out, I search until the night

I end up with a grubby shrub with a case of blight

CHORUS

It's four days till Christmas, still have to decorate

Spend hours in the basement until I find the crate

Of lights and bulbs and popcorn strings, tangled in a knot

Then I spend the day separating what I've got

CHORUS

It's three days till Christmas, I spent all day writing cards

I started writing letters now I just say "best regards"

I shove 'em in a mailbox and to the mall I go

To get gifts for Jim and Jane and Tim and Uncle Joe (and aunt Mavis and Grandma and

....)

CHORUS

Two days till Christmas, a million things to do

Clean the house, put on tea, company is due

Where are my in-laws, they should have shown up

I bet they're at the airport I forgot to pick them up

CHORUS (x4)

Christmas is here

It's finally Christmas, the kids wake me up at five

I fall downstairs a messy haired zombie, half-alive

Spend all day serving company, then fall down inert

If these are my holidays I'd rather stay at work
