Put Me Down for Christmas

I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your cheer and joy, no, I don't want your gifts I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your false wishes of hope I don't want your mistletoe kiss I don't want to spend time With your family I don't want home-made pavlova I don't care for your decked-out tree I don't want to feel trapped with people I hardly know I can't deal with all the heat When everyone else has snow I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your cheer and joy, no, I don't want your gifts I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your false wishes of hope I don't want to lie to kids I don't want to pretend that everything is fine I think Santa's overrated The whole event's a waste of time I don't want to feel the pressure Of making people smile From all these material things They'll only love for a little while I don't think it's fair With so many struggling While we're crying over urgent bills You're begging for a diamond ring No, I don't think it's okay To make us all seem close When every other day I'm someone These people barely know I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your cheer and joy, no, I don't want your gifts I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your false wishes of hope I don't want pies full of fruit mince I wanna be put down for Christmas I'd rather not exist If I see another shop Santa I might staple my eyelids I don't believe in celebrating a family so full of holes If Santa Claus was real I know who'd be getting coal I wanna be put down for Christmas When it's all built on lies And hypocritical remarks About elves all in disguise I don't believe in all the stress That makes people go broke And to anyone forcing others to Well, I guess I hope you choke So, I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your cheer and joy, no, I don't want your gifts I wanna be put down for Christmas I don't want your false wishes of hope I don't want your holiday wish And I don't want the presents underneath the Christmas tree You don't have to put me down for Christmas But maybe just leave me be
