I'm tangled all up in this tinsel

I'm tipsy on peppermint schnapps

I'm trying to be so sentimental

It's hard to be something I'm not

It's christmas eve and I'm done.

I'm wiping the dust off the mantel

Stuffing the stockings with junk

My mama showed up with a handle

And her boyfriend of the month

It's christmas eve and she's drunk.

Happy birthday, jesus

Hope that you can't see us

Down here acting a fool

Like it ain't about you

Happy birthday, jesus.

I don't wanna go out in this weather

Looking for last-minute gifts

But my mother-in-law wants a sweater

She'll probably say it don't fit

It's christmas eve and I quit.

Happy birthday, jesus

Hope that you can't see us

Down here acting a fool

Like it ain't about you

Happy birthday, jesus.

Fa la la, fa la la...

Fa la la la la...

Fa la la, fa la la...

Fa la la la la...

Happy birthday, jesus

Hope that you can't see us

Down here acting a fool

Like it ain't about you

Happy birthday, jesus.
