( Too early Christmas song lyrics )
TIRED OF CHRISTMAS
Copyright © 2006 - mickterry.com

1: It was a dark and stormy morning,
candy wrappers scattered all across my lawn.
But what hit next caught me without warning
when my neighbor's putting up his Santa Claus.

2: It was a twelve foot monster Santa,
just the kind to dominate the neighborhood.
But isn't this just the First of November?
Halloween's just gone. This can't be any good.

CHORUS:
I'm kind of getting tired of Christmas,
the tawdry whole commercial scene.
It used to start just past Thanksgiving,
but now it starts at Halloween.

3: Then after that he's got three snowmen,
twenty elves, five deer and Santa's flying sleigh.
He must think he's really quite a showman.
Ev'ry year he adds four things to his display.
CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
Spirit? You want spirit?
I've still got spirits in the trees outside my house.
Spirit? Christmas spirit?
And it'll take at least a month 'til I get the
ghosts and witches down.

4: He's not alone. The trend is catching
and the stores all egg them on to "beautify".
I've got no right to be kvetching.
For next year, they'll start the Fourth- of July.
CHORUS:

CODA:
Besides which,
the lights in my house dim when he turns his on.
And he's just getting started ...
