[00:18.84] Bah  humbug
[00:25.52]  No  that's too strong
[00:26.46]'Cause it is my favorite holiday
[00:27.70]But all this year's been a busy blur
[00:30.57]Don't think I have the energy
[00:32.63]To add to my already mad rush
[00:34.94]Just 'cause it's 'tis the season
[00:36.68]The perfect gift for me would be
[00:38.93]Completions and connections left from
[00:41.36]Last year  ski shop
[00:43.11]Encounter  most interesting
[00:45.11]Had his number but never the time
[00:47.35]Most of '81 passed along those lines
[00:49.36]So deck those halls  trim those trees
[00:51.16]Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
[00:53.54]I just need to catch my breath
[00:55.60]Christmas by myself this year
[00:57.97]Calendar picture  frozen landscape
[01:07.64]Chilled this room for twenty-four days
[01:09.57]Evergreens  sparkling snow
[01:11.69]Get this winter over with
[01:13.44]Flashback to springtime  saw him again
[01:16.06]Would've been good to go for lunch
[01:17.93]Couldn't agree when we were both free
[01:19.93]We tried  we said we'd keep in touch
[01:22.06]Didn't  of course  'til summertime
[01:23.43]Out to the beach to his boat could I join him
[01:26.42]No  this time it was me
[01:28.11]Sunburn in the third degree
[01:30.29]Now the calendar's just one page
[01:32.47]And  of course  I am excited
[01:34.28]Tonight's the night  but I've set my mind
[01:36.78]Not to do too much about it
[01:38.59]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[01:59.74]But I think I'll miss this one this year
[02:02.17]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[02:02.99]But I think I'll miss this one this year
[02:06.11]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[02:08.04]But I think I'll miss this one this year
[02:10.29]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[02:12.16]But I think I'll miss this one this year
[02:14.47]Hardly dashing through the snow
[02:16.21]Cause I bundled up too tight
[02:18.28]Last minute have-to-do's
[02:20.08]A few cards a few calls
[02:22.27]'Cause it's r-s-v-p
[02:22.89]No thanks  no party lights
[02:26.51]It's Christmas Eve  gonna relax
[02:28.57]Turned down all of my invites
[02:30.38]Last fall I had a night to myself
[02:32.75]Same guy called  Halloween party
[02:34.81]Waited all night for him to show
[02:36.93]This time his car wouldn't go
[02:38.93]Forget it  it's cold  it's getting late
[02:40.99]Trudge on home to celebrate
[02:41.98]In a quiet way  unwind
[02:45.23]Doing Christmas right this time
[02:47.67]A&P has provided me
[02:57.09]With the world's smallest turkey
[02:59.27]Already in the oven  nice and hot
[03:01.40]Oh damn  Guess what I forgot
[03:02.77]So on with the boots  back out in the snow
[03:05.70]To the only all-night grocery
[03:06.69]When what to my wondering eyes should appear
[03:09.63]In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year
[03:12.06] I'm spending this one alone
[03:13.43]  he said
[03:14.00] Need a break; this year's been crazy
[03:15.87]I said
[03:16.25] Me too  but why are you
[03:17.99]You mean you forgot cranberries too
[03:19.80]Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
[03:22.18]Caught on to what was happening
[03:23.86]That Christmas magic's brought this tale
[03:26.17]To a very happy ending
[03:28.91]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[03:48.57]Couldn't miss this one this year
[03:51.50]Merry Christmas  Merry Christmas
[03:53.38]Couldn't miss this one this year
