Green Christmas - Barenaked Ladies

The streets are filled with christmas cheer

At least it’s only once a year

Perfect parcels tied with perfect bows

And carols ringing in my ear

Bundled up against the cold

Lines wherever gifts are sold

Each shop window displays a christmas scene

For everybody young and old

Icicles on eavesdrops

And tinsel on the trees

But it’s a green christmas for me Couples skating on the pond

Making angels on the lawn

Five red mittens drying on the rack

And needles shedding tannenbaums

Red bows on the railings

And snowflakes on the ground

But it’s a green christmas in this town

Green

Cause of everything I miss

All this mistletoe no kiss

And with every christmas wish

There would be no greater gift

Than to have this envy lift

Carolers are at my door

Don’t wanna hear them anymore

Stockings on the mantle

It snows here everyday

But it’s a green christmas anyway

Red nose on the reindeer

And tinsel on the tree

But it’s a green christmas for me
