lyrics

December 24th
And I am back up north
Home for Christmas time
My family singing Christmas songs
Hanging up their Christmas cards
Drinking wine
Up here in my bedroom
It’s a different story
Nothing but posters on the wall
Not a single Christmas card among them
Not one at all

Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I won’t send one back
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
They’re all just lying in a stack
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
I won’t hang it on the wall
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I don’t care at all

Don’t get me wrong
It’s not that I’m a Grinch
There’s plenty of other things I love
(This time of year)
Seeing all my family
Drinking too much eggnog
Snow falling from above

You can’t drink a Christmas card
You can’t eat a Christmas card
And we ain’t even got a coal fire no more
Unless I open to find
Out there’s money inside
Is all that they should be used for

Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I won’t send one back
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
They’re all just lying in a stack
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
I won’t hang it on the wall
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I don’t care at all

Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I won’t send one back
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
They’re all just lying in a stack
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
I won’t hang it on the wall
Don’t bother sending me a Christmas card
‘Cause I don’t care at all
