Merry Christmas Baby
The roof caved in
Army men are meltin'
The bag pipes moan
She says it's Celtic
So pour me a drink
My eyes are drippin'
I'm so alone
Merry Christmas baby
Goodnight
I've been to Poland
Been drunk in France
& I danced in China
I took a chance
But your eyes relaxed me
As soft as poems
I'm just a pisces
I'm so fucked up
Merry Christmas baby
Goodnight
There's ants on the ground
With crumbs on their backs
Looking for some lost place
There's termites in my head
Eating my memory
& I can't remember your face
The shooting stars
Aren't fast as greyhounds
Now the sky's black
Just like a playground
I skinned my knee
Atop your speedboat
& as I lie in bed
I can hear my heart thump
Merry Christmas baby
Goodnight
Happy birthday Jesus
Goodnight
Happy Christmas darling
Goodnight
Back
