Christmas Wrapping - Kylie Minogue, Iggy Pop

"Bah, humbug!"

but that's too strong,

'Cause it is my favorite holiday.

But all this year's been a busy blur

Don't think I have the energy

To add to my already mad rush

Just 'cause it's 'tis the season.

The perfect gift for me would be

Completions and connections left from

Last year, ski shop,

Encounter, most interesting.

Had his number but never the time

Most of '81 passed along those lines.

So deck those halls, trim those trees

Raise up cups of Christmas cheer,

I just need to catch my breath,

Christmas by myself this year.

Calendar picture, frozen landscape,

Chilled this room for twenty-four days,

Evergreens, sparkling snow

Get this winter over with!

Flashback to springtime, saw him again,

Would've been good to go for lunch,

Couldn't agree when we were both free,

We tried, we said we'd keep in touch.

Didn't, of course, 'til summertime,

Out to the beach to his boat could I join him?

No, this time it was me,

Sunburn in the third degree.

Now the calendar's just one page

Of course, I am excited

Tonight's the night, I've set my mind

Not to do too much about it.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

But I think I'll miss this one this year.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

But I think I'll miss this one this year.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

But I think I'll miss this one this year.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

But I think I'll miss this one this year.

A&P has provided me

With the world's smallest turkey

Already in the oven, nice and hot

Oh damn!

Guess what I forgot?

So on with the boots, back out in the snow

To the only all-night grocery,

When what to my wondering eyes should appear

In the line is that guy I've been chasing all year!

"I'm spending this one alone," he said.

"Need a break; this year's been crazy."

I said, "Me too, but why are you?

You mean you forgot cranberries too?"

Then suddenly we laughed and laughed

Caught on to what was happening

That Christmas magic's brought this tale

To a very happy ending

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Couldn't miss this one this year!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Couldn't miss this one this year!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Couldn't miss this one this year!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Couldn't miss this one this year!
