Bah humhug me.

I hope it snows this week.
A snowflake on your cheek
Would make this Christmas so beautiful.
But that would just bring the pain,
'Cause things can’t stay the same.
These holidays won’t be wonderful.

I look under the tree,
But there’s nothing to see.
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.
I can’t figure you out.
Is this what Christmas is all about?
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.

I don’t want to talk;
I’m sick of all this talking.
A broken heart wrapped up in a box.
There’s tear drops in my stocking.

I look under the tree,
But there’s nothing to see.
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.
I can’t figure you out.
Is this what Christmas is all about?
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.

I hate Christmas parties.
You offer me some punch (but I just shrug).
I hate Christmas parties.
You and the cookie tray (both hear me say),
“Bah Humbug.”

I look under the tree,
But there’s nothing to see.
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.
I can’t figure you out.
Is this what Christmas is all about?
'Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me.

A very sad song on a very (otherwise) cheery bonus disc of "Two Lefts Don't Make A Right, But Three Do". Thank you, Moyee, for lending me this pseudo-album. This song is pretty depressing and emo... but I'm posting the lyrics purely because it's just a really great song. Not 'cause I'm feeling that way.

Sometimes life gets cold. Not cold like when your fingers numb or when your nipples stand on end. XD I mean like getting snowjobbed in the nude/in your boxers (or briefs/hot pants/thong/underwear) kind of cold. You shiver and shiver, and that's Jesus' cue to hand you his warm coat. Then He hands you his sweater and snow pants. Next comes His turtleneck and mittens. Taking off his boots and rainbow woolen socks (that don't match, by the way -- He's funky like that), He hands these to you. Down to His wife beater and boxers, He looks at you. Both of you are standing there, practically nude. You go to start putting on the clothes when you realize that you're not shivering and neither is He. Strange, no?
