Once a year we celebrate
With stupid hats and plastic plates
The fact that you were able to make
Another trip around the sun

And the whole clan gathers round

When we're discovering lies
Our pride will be in vain
Now, recirculate your thoughts
Make them new again
Well, do you know where to start
And do you see the end

He was the king of trees
Keeper of the leaves
A deep green god of young
Love stained memory
We used to meet by him
Far from the hustling town
I loved you

Rockin' around the christmas tree
At the christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop

Rockin' around the christmas tree

The time has come to set aside
The stories we're told
And talk about the children growing old
For building blocks and colour books
Will soon fade away

It hurts me to see him treat you the way he does
It hurts me to see sit and cry
When i know i could be so true
If i had someone like you

I asked my friend i.d.
If he could recall
The last 24 hours and the tv on the floor
Shopping with bricks
In the name of fun i'd take it back officer

Any time tomorrow I will lie and say I'm fine
I'll say yes when I mean no
And any time tomorrow
The sun will cease to shine
There's a shadowman who told me so

Blackened is the end
Winter it will send
Throwing all you see
Into obscurity

Death of mother earth
Never a rebirth
Evolution's end
Never will it mend

Here is london, giddy of london
Is it home of the free -
Or what ?

Can you squeeze me
Into an empty page of your diary
And psychologically save me
