Lyrics
I got your list, and I checked it twice
I can't afford anything this nice
Besides, the roads are all covered in ice
Shouldn't drive in these conditions
I thought about telling you the truth
That Santa Claus ain't up on the roof
But then, I realized that's a sad excuse
So you might as well keep wishing
The angels are signing something
But I can't make out the words
And the turkey's in the oven, but I'm sure it's gonna burn
The light are fading out
And there is no snow on the ground
It's a not so merry Christmas without you still around
Salvation Army keeps askin' for change
I keep on walking and I look away
I slam the door on my Chevrolet
Hope that I can find forgiveness
And the carolers are on the street, but all my lights are off
I've known the words for all my life, but I can't sing along
Well, it's another silent night
Oh, but something don't feel right
It's a not so merry Christmas without you by my side
I grew up thinking that the movies were right
And everybody wants a wonderful life
No miracles on my street tonight
And I've giving up on wishing
The church bells were ringing, deck the halls
But I don't care at all
They try to sell me joy and laughter at the shopping mall
So let it snow all night, and if it melts away, that's fine
It's a not so merry Christmas, it's a not so merry Christmas
Oh, it's a not so merry Christmas
