Well, howdy friends, guess it’s that time of year once again. E B Ain’t it funny how quickly it rolls around, so E B here’s a little number i wrote in honor of the season
B Well, it’s here (Well, it’s here) E Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) B E That particular time of the year (Aaaaaaaaaaah) B Well, it’s here (Well, it’s here) E Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) B E That particular time of the year
B E It’s just too late for snow, but there’s still every chance of sleet B E And Christmas trees all dry and brown lie rotting in the street C#m Let’s don our suits of black or blue F#m Let’s wear our ties of grey B For the fifth of February’s just another working day
And it’s here (And it’s here) Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) The most miserable time of the year (Aaaaaaaaaaah) And it’s here (And it’s here) Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) The most miserable time of the year
Oh, nobody is merry on the fifth of February With Christmas gone and summer’s still as distant as can be It is quite close to Valentine’s But we all know for ninety-nine percent of us that’s lonely, stressful, boring, or all three
So we’re here (So we’re here) With bad cheer (With bad cheer) The most miserable time of the year (Aaaaaaaaaaah) So we’re here (So we’re here) With bad cheer (Such bad cheer) The most miserable time of the year
For nobody is merry on the fifth of February The tax was due six days ago you’re either late or broke The children all have colds or flu, it’s getting dark by half-past two Your New Year’s resolutions are a dim and distant joke
But it’s here (But it’s here) Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) The most miserable time of the year (Aaaaaaaaaaah) But it’s here (But it’s here) Yes, it’s here (Yes, it’s here) The most miserable, wretchedest, cursedest time (3x sleigh bells) of the year
