BAH HUMBUG

BAH HUMBUG

So Christmas time is here again
Yet it seems like yesterday
We exchanged our presents
And put everything away;
Then the bills came due
And we worked extra hard
To do it all over again
Buying gifts and cards.

But what if we don't care
To spend what we ain't got
And what if we just disappear
And fly to someplace hot;
I think if I had money
A ticket I would buy
A "Bah Humbug" message
To warmer spots I'd fly.

With children living far away
And my dog down South
All I feel like doing here
Is stuffing my big mouth;
Carols make me lonelier
Snow just makes me mad
And I expect no presents
'Cuz Santa knows I'm bad.

So Christmas can pass me by
I really couldn't care less
I won't be decorating much
So then I'll have no mess;
But I might start drinking
And maybe sleep right through
Cause it ain't a good Christmas
If I ain't got you.
