about

Christmas was written and recorded in the span of two hours. Would have been less if not for Greg.

lyrics

icicle lights and bourbon flights bring jeb in with his pink flamingos - i wish i had a river too, gin river, gin river carry me through. ----- resumes bulge with how we helped orphans and yuletide ghosts can fuck me too i'll be halfway to comeback city - i wish i had a river too, gin river, gin river ----- pine needle wine - sideboard brandy and slow decline to single 30s - whatever rears its head i'll lock myself in geoff's guest room to kick ---- and float out above the firs in furs bring jeb in with his pink flamingos - i wish i had a river too, gin river gin river -
-----
Got caught making a Pittsburgh left, half a shepherd by my side,
It was another rainy Saturday Christmas Evening night
"Thank god you're in your harness," I told my dog, as the other drover drove out of sight
in a busted up gold Altima
bumper sticker read "the king is gonna come"

All anyone wants for Christmas is a brain made of rosegold

And ever since you accident, well you know how I get lost sometimes
The way those pine trees smell when the snow starts piling high
How did I ever make it past these gorgeous holiday lights
The tinsel and the fire and the red cheeks and the white wine and the egg nog and the longjohns
Doesnt it all drive you right out of my mind

John Glenn didn't want this New Year anymore than you or me
Gwynn Ifell didn't have the heart to tell you what happens next
And i hear that Lazarus walks the Krog Street Tunnel down in Cabbagetown at night
Sharon Jones was the only one who knew how to stop the alt-right
George Michael could really give a fuck re: arms races
And Castro didn't want to live through Christmas in the USA,
But dropped in to say "Ladies Man dances in Our Revolution
and chintzy synths he's singing "the king is gonna come""
