It's Christmas time and a cold wind appears The snow isn't falling down Because the earth is misbehaving Humans are not worth saving And it breaks my heart in two To know it's down to you Humans are not worth saving And it breaks my heart in two To know it's down to you Resurrected annually To highlight wealth inequality Humans are not worth saving Merry Christmas Please let me die

I haven't been taking very good care of myself You haven't been taking very good care of yourself So how are we supposed to care, I guess, at all That Christmas time is meant to be spent alone Alone in digital? Baby, I will Zoom you this Christmas Baby, I will Zoom you this Christmas Pixelated and broken I'm unsure if you've spoken I'm blaming the connection But maybe that's the problem Baby, I will Zoom you this Christmas day I haven't been taking very good care of myself I've let my subscriptions expire for every single streaming site I'd watch you hang up your stocking But the quality is shocking Please show me the tree In 4K HD I haven't been taking very good care of myself So how are we supposed to care, I guess, at all That Christmas time is meant to be spent alone Alone in digital? Baby, I will Zoom you this Christmas Baby, I will Zoom you this Christmas Keep me on your lap under the table Tell me the joke from your cracker if you are able I'll be disappointed with the prize And the lack of spark that's in your eyes I will Zoom you this Christmas Other apps are available I will Zoom you this Christmas day Silent mic, muted mic

It's easy to hate this time of year The saccharine smell of cheer It's easy to hate this time of year The sparkle is absent from the stars A commercial and bourgeois affair So why should you care? They make it so easy to hate this time of year You're spending money you don't have If you even have that I wish I could see this as a new start But I don't The emphasis on togetherness Is a spike in your stomach and now that you are alone They make it so easy to hate this time of year This is my chance to be the person I've wanted to be But it's easy Yeah, it's easy Oh, it's easy to hate this time of year

Underneath the mistletoe As long as the two-metre rule is adhered to Exchanging gifts with family Five packs of coveted toilet paper Celebrate with friends on Christmas day Provided you wear the appropriate face mask See the snow fall from the sky My first time outside since fucking March Some people will take the risk And say it's how the cards will fall But you're betting with someone else's deck Season's Greetings on Christmas cards But don't lick the stamp, the virus can live on it Deck the halls so merrily It might be the last time you deck the halls at all Some people will take the risk And say it's how the cards will fall But you're betting with someone else's deck This isn't just about you And you know if it was, I'd feel the same way too I understand that I've ruined Christmas I'm fine with the fact that I've ruined Christmas

I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night Which directly contravenes all social distancing guidelines I can't bring myself to let her know To see her arrested out in the snow She's putting everyone at risk For a sly little peck and a drunken frisk But maybe that's the point of this To own a moment in the dark abyss To steal back something for your health While the world collapses around itself I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus Underneath the mistletoe last night Which directly contravenes all social distancing guidelines And I know that it should not be fine I know that it should not be fine But it's fine
