The sky above is laden with snow
All dressed up and nowhere to go
One more Christmas, one more no-show
The sound of church bells whispers in the air
You tease the tinsel out of your hair
Whilst your mascara’s running everywhere
There’s nothing I can say to stop the hurt
Just wipe away your tears with my shirt
As I wrap my arms around you
(Merry Christmas)
Don’t make a fuss

We fell hook, line and sinker and we failed to see the plot:
We all spent too much money, more money than we’d got
Then we all sang the same songs, though we weren’t sure of the words
That one about that fairytale…
And they’ll overeat, because they always do: Merry Christmas
Then they’ll fall asleep, because they always do: Merry Christmas
And it won’t snow, because it never does: Merry Christmas
So let’s get away, just the two of us: Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas (don’t make a fuss)
We looked towards the future and we toasted absent friends
And tried to make the Advent candle burn out at both ends
Then Mary came from two doors down and we said a little prayer
For grandad in his eiderdown
And they’ll overeat, because they always do: Merry Christmas
And they’ll get drunk, because they always do: Merry Christmas
And it won’t snow, because it never does: Merry Christmas
So let’s get away, just the two of us: Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas (don’t make a fuss)
Tradition says be merry, with a serpent in your tree
And all those fruits and berries, as much for Yule as me
And give a nod to Saturn as you hang up your wreath
If you scratch away at Christmas...
