The Season's Upon Us Lyrics

The season's upon us, it's that time of year
Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer
There's light on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung
There's mischief and mayham and songs to be sung
There's bells and there's holly the kids are gung-ho
True love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe
Some families are messed up while others are fine
If you think yours is crazy, well you should see mine

My sisters are whack-jobs I wish I had none
Their husbands are losers and so are their sons
My nephew's a hrorrible, wise little twit
He once gave me a nice gift wrapped box full of shit
He likes to pelt carolers with icy snow balls
I'd like to take him out back and deck more than the halls
With family like this I would have to confess
I'd better off lonely, distraught and depressed

The season's upon us, it's that time of year
Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer
There's light on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung
There's mischief and mayham and songs to be sung
They call this Christmas where I'm from

My mom likes to cook, push our buttons and prod
My brother just brought home another big broad
The eyes roll and whispers come loud from the kitchen
I'd come home more often if they'd only quit bitching
Dad on the other hand's a selfisch old sod
Drinks whsikey alone with my miserable old dog
Who won't run or fetch, yeah, he couldn't care less
He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess

The season's upon us, it's that time of year
Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer
There's light on the trees and there's wreaths to be hung
There's mischief and mayham and songs to be sung
They call this Christmas where I'm from

The table's set, we raise the toast
The father, the son and the holy ghost
I'm so glad this day only comes once a year
You can keep your opinions, our presents, your "Happy New Year"

They call this Christmas where I'm from
They call this Christmas where I'm from
