lyrics
Christmas in July
Was a lie
You can try
To blame
All your problems on me
So Happy Holidays
To the daze
I was in
Before
The 25th of July
We were stringing lights while you were only stringing me along
After this faux holiday season I can't stand to hear another Christmas song
I tried making a sandman and all I ever got was crumbling dreams
But if you weren't for you I wouldn't have this valuable lesson it seems
So spike the eggnog, trash the halls, stop the caroling, and close the malls
‘Cuz I don't want to celebrate
Because...
Christmas in July
Was a lie
You can try
To blame
All your problems on me
And so soak up
The rays
You’re unphased
Don’t even bother
Bothering me
‘Cuz Christmas in July
Was a lie
You can try
To blame
All your problems on me
So Happy Holidays
To the daze
I was in
Before
The 25th of July
I’m taking my ugly sweater and my fruitcake and I am going home
I’d be better off this summertime Christmas by my fireplace alone
For the next five months, I’ll have to ask myself, “What would Jesus do?”
Because there's no I in Divine - at least the way I spell it - without you
So spike the eggnog, trash the halls, stop the caroling, and close the malls
‘Cuz I don't want to celebrate
Because
Christmas in July
Was a lie
You can try
To blame
All your problems on me
So soak up
The rays
You’re unphased
Don’t even bother
Bothering me
‘Cuz Christmas in July
Was a lie
You can try
To blame
All your problems on me
So Happy Holidays
To the daze
I was in
Before
The 25th of July
