lyrics

2015 I was home for Xmas
Kept a Xanax in my pocket just in case
In case I felt the need to escape
I had a feeling like I had to impress you
All I could do was stress and regress
You brought out the salad with the usual suspects

Pre-CHORUS
Iceberg lettuce, tinned pineapple
And a half a hard boiled egg (no dressing)

CHORUS
This year I’m having an orphans Xmas
No sad ham and prawns for me
This year I’m having an orphan’s Xmas
Burning down the Xmas tree

Its 2017, I’m going to a friend’s place
We’ve had Xmas together ever since you were born
And we took you to hospital when you were young
I ring up my brother to tell him I’m worried
I hope Dad doesn’t take it out on Mum
I’m ruining Xmas for everyone

Pre-CHORUS
CHORUS

2018 I said I was in Melbourne
With my boyfriend in Toowong I decided to hide
You asked about the weather I couldn’t lie
My brothers go with the families of their wives
Keep the family together never disagree
It’s all down to me to be the life of the party

Pre CHORUS
CHORUS
