( Funny children's Christmas song lyrics )
DADDY CANCELED CHRISTMAS
Copyright © 2001 - mickterry.com

1: If only we'd been nicer,
if only we'd been good,
we'd probably still have Christmas
like everybody should,
with family, friends and presents
and lots of food and fun.
But then we had to mess up,
and now, we're the losing ones.

2: We've tried 'most every method
to make him change his mind.
We've even tried to be good,
but that won't work this time.
It's too late in the season,
too close to Christmas Day.
Once Daddy's made his mind up,
then it's going to be that way.

CHORUS:
Daddy canceled Christmas
once again this year.
He said we don't deserve it.
Don't dare to start the tears!
Daddy canceled Christmas.
We weren't even all that bad.
If he had found what else we did,
then he'd be really mad!

3: Now, Daddy's gone and torn down
all of our Christmas lights.
He says he'll load his shotgun
and stay up all the night
to keep away all reindeer
that might land on our roof.
He swears that he'll start shooting
if he hears a single hoof.

BRIDGE:
To Daddy, it don't matter
if the neighbors think we're weird.
To Daddy, it's important that we learn.
To Daddy, it don't matter
if the neighbors think he's feared.
To Daddy, it's important to keep his word.

4: He's boarded up the chimney,
placed booby traps around.
He swears that there is no way
that Santa will get down.
He took a can of spray paint,
scrawled, "Santa, go away!"
He says we might try next year,
but if only we behave.
CHORUS:
