lyrics

It’s time for seasonal beer
And holiday cheer
Come on everybody, gather around
There’ll be dancing and singing
Those sleigh bells a-ringing
And everyone you love is in town
So for those who don’t call you on Christmas
Tell ‘em to go stuff a stocking
Everyone knows they’ll get nothing but coal
When Santa Claus comes a-knocking

Oh, holiday shmoliday
Wish they would call-a-day
Don’t worry, you’re not alone

Oh you’ve been waiting all year
To celebrate here
For all the good people you know
Been waiting on kisses
On presents, on wishes
And maybe a little bit of snow
But be careful remember last time
When you gave Rudolph too much wine
Dancer and Blitzen ran off and went missing
And Comet and Cupid resigned

Oh, holiday schmoliday
Reindeer AWOL-a-day
Don’t worry, never again

So if you’re thinking of staying at home
To have Christmas all on your own
Well, you’d better answer the phone
Because I won’t let you spend it alone

Oh, holiday shmoliday wish they would call-a-day
Reindeer AWOL-a-day
You’ll have a ball-a-day
Everyone’s drunken and jolly
Good golly, it’s Christmas
Everyone’s drunken and jolly
Oh, everyone’s drunken and jolly
Oh, everyone’s drunken and jolly
Good golly, it’s Christmas
