lyrics

I bet you're the kind of guy
Who says that Die Hard is his favourite Christmas movie,
And I bet you're the kind of guy,
Who spends the season trying to act all tough and broody

You may talk big about hating Hallmark (they're so damn awful)
But I've met your family and seen the books your mother bought you
Cheer up you moody prick
It's only Christmas

You're not the first mild nihilist,
Who thinks he's waging war with smarmy words,
And you're not the world's first pissy child,
To write a biting thousand-plus word Facebook status

You may talk big about hating Hallmark (they're so damn awful)
But I've met your family and seen the books your mother bought you
Cheer up you moody prick

We get it mate, you think that gifts are silly,
You don't like Wham! and all the shops are busy.
Why don't you deck the halls with your self pity?
You're not impressing anyone

[enter saxophone]

You may talk big about hating Hallmark (they're so damn awful)
But I've met your family and seen the books your mother bought you
Cheer up you moody prick
It's only Christmas

Cheer up you moody prick
Cheer up for old Saint Nick...
