lyrics

Footsteps on the roof again
Saint Nicholas circling over head
and I ain't getting nothing but coal
I got on the naughty list
but I'm not there all by myself
'cause I ain't been bad all alone

This Christmas Eve Eve I'm gonna throw a party
for all my loser friends and all the working stiffs
so if you pass by my house, Santa don't you worry
this Christmas I have no use for gifts

No brand new red fire truck
no stockings filled up with stuff
no kisses beneath the mistletoe
I guess this just wasn't my year
but I'm not giving up on cheer
'cause I won't spend Christmas alone

This Christmas Eve Eve I'm gonna throw a party
for all my piss drunk friends and all the double shifts
so if you pass by my house, Santa don't you worry
this Christmas you can cross me off the list
This Christmas Eve Eve I'm gonna throw a party
for all my loser friends and all the working stiffs
so if you pass by my house, Santa don't you worry
this Christmas I have no use for gifts
yeah this Christmas I have no use for gifts
