The Season's Upon Us (Signed and Sealed in Blood - 2013)
he season's upon us, it's that time of year Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer There's lights on the trees And there's wreaths to be hung There's mischief and mayhem And songs to be sung
There's bells and there's holly, the kids are gung-ho True love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe Some families are messed up while others are fine If you think yours is crazy Well you should see mine
My sisters are whack-jobs, I wish I had none Their husbands are losers and so are their sons My nephew's a horrible, wise little twit He once gave me a gift wrapped box full of shit
He likes to pelt carolers with icy snow balls I'd like to take him out back And deck more than the halls With family like this, I would have to confess I'd be better off lonely, distraught and depressed
The season's upon us, it's that time of year Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer There's lights on the trees And there's wreaths to be hung There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung They call this Christmas where I'm from
My mom likes to cook, push our buttons and prod My brother just brought home another big broad The eyes roll and whispers come loud From the kitchen I'd come home more often If they'd only quit bitching
Dad, on the other hand's a selfish old sod Drinks whiskey alone with my miserable dog Who won't run or fetch, yeah, he couldn't care less He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess
The season's upon us, it's that time of year Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer There's lights on the trees And there's wreaths to be hung There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung They call this Christmas where I'm from
The table's set, we raise a toast The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost I'm so glad this day only comes once a year You can keep your opinions, your presents, your “Happy New Year” They call this Christmas where I'm from They call this Christmas where I'm from
