Christmas Doesn't Start In November

Take down the lights, pack up the tree Or take one more last good look at me I’m going MIA for the holidays I’d love to hear your Christmas cheer If we were in the right month of the year But you won’t find today on your advent calendar Because Christmas doesn’t start in November Three days ago was Halloween Check the new department store magazine They’ve got DVD box-sets and Toblerone Generic gifts for aisles and aisles To paint the face feigning a smile On the skull of a man with a paycheck of his own Because Christmas doesn’t start in November And on that fact we disagree Christmas doesn’t start in November Two months of monetary insufficiency The magic will all dissipate Because it’s too early to celebrate I’m gonna spend this Christmas season on my own Because Christmas doesn’t start in November And it’s getting way too much to bear Christmas doesn’t start in November Why ruin a special thing by making it last one-sixth of the year Because Christmas doesn’t start in November And on that fact we disagree Christmas doesn’t start in November Two months of monetary insufficiency Isolation and inadequacy The constant pressure to feel merry Isolation and inadequa- see you all in January
