Christmastime Is Killing Us

[00:09.35] Each bell would peal with a silvery zeal

[00:11.89] As the holiday feeling was filling us

[00:15.28] But now instead, all we're feeling is dread

[00:18.11] Because Christmastime is killing us!

[00:21.50] Each Christmas list gets us more and more pissed

[00:24.04] Till the thought of existence is chilling us

[00:27.43] I'll tell you what— shove your list up your butt, because...

[00:30.54] Christmastime is killing us!

[00:33.09] But can't you see that what you do

[00:37.61] Is a dream come true?

[00:39.59] Can't you see that every smile

[00:43.54] Makes it all worthwhile?

[00:45.52] No, screw you! It's all but through,

[00:49.48] There's too much to do

[00:51.46] All those dreams are nightmares

[00:55.70] And blank, icy stares!

[00:57.68] --

[01:03.33] Each little elf used to fill up a shelf

[01:06.15] Making playthings and selflessly thrilling us

[01:09.54] Now they're on crack and it feels like Iraq

[01:12.09] Because Christmastime is killing us!

[01:15.48] Each model train only heightens the pain

[01:18.02] Of the workload that's draining and drilling us

[01:21.41] Fingers all bleed, and, look! That guy just peed

[01:23.95] Because Christmastime is killing us!

[01:27.34] But can't you see our point of view?

[01:31.58] We rely on you

[01:33.56] Can't you see that Christmas cheer

[01:37.52] Gets us through the year?

[01:39.50] My whole crew is black and blue

[01:43.45] Can't you take a clue?

[01:45.43] You may think I look great,

[01:49.67] But I'm twenty-eight!

[01:51.65] --

[01:57.30] Each jingle-bell is a requiem knell

[02:00.13] And while you think it's swell, we are toiling in Hell!

[02:03.23] Take a look, you can tell, as a man, I'm a shell!

[02:13.13] Because Christmastime is killing us!

[02:18.21] Killing us!

[02:19.91] Christmastime is killing us!
