Lyrics
Green Christmas
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The streets are filled with Christmas cheer
At least it's only once a year
Perfect parcels tied with perfect bows,
And carols ringing in my ear
Bundled up against the cold
Lines wherever gifts are sold
Each shop window displays a Christmas scene
For everybody young and old
Icicles on eavesdrops and tinsel on the tree,
But it's a green Christmas for me
Couples skating on the pond (couples skating the pond)
Making angels on the lawn (makin' angels on the lawn)
Five red mittens drying on the rack
And needles shedding tannenbaum
Red bows on the railings and snowflakes on the ground,
But it's a green Christmas in this town
Green, cause of everything I miss
All this mistletoe, no kiss
And with every Christmas wish
There would be no greater gift
Than to have this envy lift
Carolers are at my door (Fa la la la) [etc..]
Don't wanna hear them anymore
Stockings on the mantle
The snow's here everyday
But it's a green Christmas anyway
Red nose on the reindeer and tinsel on the tree
But it's a green Christmas for me
