I am a Christmas song
Wintertime came along
But it don’t mean that anymore
I don’t mean too much anymore
I like the lights inside
Ain’t it a big surprise?
Or doesn’t it mean too much anymore?
'cause It feels like I’m not in the house anymore
They made you: a soul
Christmas was born
They made you: a soul
But it don't feel like much anymore
No it don't mean too much anymore

Steady In Your Dreams

Yeah I know that it snows but what we can do outside?
We might fall or get lost, get hungry or just get high
I’m such a mean, such a mean person inside
There’s love on TV and then there’s you and there’s me
It’s practically homicide
Put it aside
It makes you stronger
See
Weary lights and tea
Then the snow went away and so many less people died
Why are we smoking weed when it’s obviously Christmas time?
And why am I such a weak person inside?
Why can’t I be stronger?
See
Weary lights and tea
I'm steady in your dreams
I can want everything that I want
You can want everything that I want
I can want everything that you want
We can want everything that we want
But see
You're watching over me
Yeah I know that it snows but what we can do outside?

The Lonely vs The Eye

Before it was Christmas
Before it was Christmas
Jammer
Before it was Christmas I was alone everybody was gone
But once it was Christmas: no more despair
Everybody was there
That’s what I remember
That's what I remember
No more misery
Na na na na
We had two days of Christmas
Then I was hungover the party was over
I started regretting how fucked up I got after drinking alot
That’s what I remember that day in December
It was the party of the year
Or perhaps the century!
(the eye says:)
Dude
That’s just a lie
No party ever happened!
Boy how you tried to make it look like there was snow in the air
Dude, why would you care about something like that?
What’s cool about that?
'cause kid
What’s so exciting about living a lie?
What’s so exciting about living a lie?
What’s so exciting about living a lie?
What’s so exciting about living... oh but wait...
I I understand because you never had real friends
I understand
So go out and go make some friends
Some friends you will remember one day in December when they’re gone and you’re full of misery! :D

Hey, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Sleigh bells are ringing and snow coming down
See how it's falling all over the town
Sleigh bells are ringing and snow coming down
See how it's falling all over the town
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Unpack the presents that Santa Claus brought
It's snowing outside but the fire is hot
Unpack the presents that Santa Claus brought
It's snowing outside but the fire is hot
May you be happy
May you be happy

Christmas Long Ago

Can I tell you something about Christmas long ago?
Can I tell you something? And I think you did not know
But sometimes I was petrified
But then all the snow and all the lights and...
Can I tell you something about Christmas long ago?
But it’d be the same remark as yours so you’d already know
But sometimes when I’m petrified
Why not keep me warm inside?
When I'm lost
And the snow...
Very little did we know

I could tell from the minute that he walked through the door
he was alive nonetheless I asked him just to be sure
He bought me presents even though he’s never really on my mind
I’m so unkind! :D
He looked as though he had some worries in the back of his head
I got the feeling that he wanted me to ask him about it
I said: 'Tell me Santa what’d you think about the terrorist attack in Paris?'
He said:
'Well I could tell you what the world needs jetzt
But I haven’t really thought about it..
I live on the North Pole and all I really do is wait for Christmas
All that I do is wait for Christmas because I love Christmas'
But Santy Santy there’s one thing I must know
Wouldn’t it be better if all the days we had were Christmas days?
Tell me Santa!
He said:
''Well I would tell you what you want to know
But it’s christmas so I gotta go
Ho ho ho
It’s christmas it’s christmas
It’s christmas it’s christmas
I gotta go because it’s Christmas!''
