Christmas Wrapping (Radio Edit) - The Waitresses

"Bah humbug" no that's 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 shoppin'

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 cup's of Christmas cheer

I just need to catch my breath

Christmas by myself this year

Calendar picture frozen landscape

Chilled this room for twenty-four days

Evergreens sparkling snow

Get this winter over with

Flashback to springtime saw him again

Would've 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 'til summertime

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

And of course I am excited

Tonight's the night but I've set my mind

Not to do too much about it

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

But I think I'll miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

But I think I'll miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

But I think I'll miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

But I think I'll miss this one this year

Hardly dashing through the snow

'Cause I bundled up too tight

Last minute have to do

A few cards a few calls

'Cause it's "RSVP"

No thanks no party lights

It's Christmas eve gonna relax

Turned down all of my invites

Last fall I had a night to myself

Same guy called Halloween party

Waited all night for him to show

This time his car wouldn't go

Forget it it's cold it's getting late

Trudge on home to celebrate

In a quiet way unwind

Doing Christmas right this time

"A&P" has its provided me

With the world's smallest turkey

Already in the oven nice and hot

Oh damn Guess what I forgot

So on with the boots back out in the snow

To the only all-night grocery

When what to my wondering eyes should appear

In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year

"I'm spending this one alone " he said

"Need a break this year's been crazy"

I said "Me too but why are you

You mean you forgot cranberries too "

Then suddenly we laughed and laughed

Caught on to what was happening

That Christmas magic's brought this tale

To a very happy ending

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

Couldn't miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

Couldn't miss this one this year

Merry Christmas Merry Christmas

Couldn't miss this one this year
