| - Merry Christmas, one and all
or whatever, you might call
this time of year, i'm not pc
it's always been, Christmas to me
but celebrate, to each their own
this joyous season, we have grown
up with as kids, it's magical
and every year, it's Tim Mitchell's
where we go, to get our tree
oh tannenbaum, how lovely
are your branches, pick your fir
douglas, nordman, grand, fraser
all of them, out on the lot
choose your height, pretty much got
anything your heart desires
three to eight foot, even higher
wreathes and garlands, evergreen
the smell of Christmas, reminds me
of santa claus, my dad and mom
eloise, and Christmas songs
presents wrapped beneath the tree
and guessing which ones were for me
mom always cooked, leg of lamb
snapped polaroids on dads old cam
era, we loved that thing
hark the harold, we'd all sing
with charlie brown and linus too
schroeder plays, guaraldi for you
while snoopy dances, pigpen bass
peanuts gang, all on the stage

and charlie's Christmas tree stands there
Tim's trees, I promise, aren't so bare
Christmas tradition, at our house
load the kids, and pick one out
tie it on the roof and go
sing White Christmas, dream of snow
window candles, advent wreath
our terrier, curled underneath
the Chrismas tree, we got from Tim
Mitchell's, go get your tree from them
and have a Merry Christmas, yelpers
give, not get , be santa's helper
this year, reach out to those in need
to Charlie Brown's yule message, heed
peace on earth, good will towards men
and this year, please remember them
commercial Christmas = empty joy
so give to all the girls and boys
that don't have much, you'll feel much better
than getting another, cashmere sweater
happy holidays, all!
