Don't Be a Charlie Brown

Charlie ain’t about it
I don’t really blame him this whole game is lousy
Making wish lists for a pagan holiday
Tally up the gifts like they gonna save the economy
Yeah, I want tens and twenties
A brand new pony and some diamonds that’s bloody
I don’t feel holy the whole scummy
They all a bunch of phonies - home for holidays
Is what they say important right. Got gorgeous lights
Yeah the mortgage tight can’t afford the right
Kinda gift man this Christmas shit kinda twisted. Damn
Can't even see the doctor unless you got a nickel
Gonna cost extra if you need a tissue
Lucy gonna pull the football just to diss you
Probably fall in love with a girl who’ll never kiss you
Under mistletoe with gold tinsel
Snow on the tip of the tongue wet the whistle
Roll up the gifts in the rug like the Grinch do
Or buy out the whole store like it ain’t an issue
Good grief. We need a great big Christmas tree
With strings of gold beads lights LED's
So bright you could see for a mile for while
It was all about the love now it’s all about the style
We in denial if we think ain’t commercial
I you ain’t grateful it’s probably gonna hurt you
You can say thank you can find a good reason
to sit there and smile this holiday season
No complaining, it’s snowing not raining
Decorate the tree and eat cookies till the day end
Yeah, that’s what Christmas all about
Don’t bring your boy down and be a Charlie Brown
Yeah, that’s what Christmas all about
Don’t bring your boy down and be a Charlie Brown

True Gifts

Put them cookies out on Christmas Eve
I saw mommy kissing Santa, I seen some reindeer antlers
Maybe Dasher maybe Prancer
I wrote all those letters but never got no answers
Thought the North Pole wasn’t listening
Santa’s elves the mystery of how he gets those gifts to me
Coming down that chimney - so quick
Lickity split then he dips then off to give gifts to the next kid
New Xbox and a sled kit man I hope I’m on that nice list
I’ve been naughty but I’m priceless
(This seasons bout the giving so our true gift is a given)
Living like we wanna give it all away this holiday break the monotony
Family playing games like monopoly candy canes and a gumdrop tree
Tis’ the season to be the change that you want to see
Hark the herald angels singing songs while wearing halos
It feels wrong I don't feel grateful
It feels wrong I don't feel grateful)
This Christmas i got a wish to live this life like I got to live
Like I won't live twice wanna make nice snowball fights
What a great life sleigh bells ring while the sled takes flight
Look out my window in the night man I hope that Santa get me right
(This season bout the giving so our true gift is a given)
See everything we give we won’t get in return it’s a hard lesson to learn
Whether you a boy or a girl it’s joy to the world
Blessings can be received but not reserved
It’s not deserved but you know we should be hopeful
Hanging stockings on the mantle hoping they’ll be full soon
Yeah, from the egg nog to the fruitcake
We had too much, stayed up too late
This true love is too great this Yule lets celebrate a new day
Like today is the best place we could ever be
Let’s decorate the tree just you and me
Loving you the greatest gift and it is free
Cuz this season’s bout the giving so our true gift is a given
It ain’t all bows and ribbons lights that glitter and they glisten
Tradition or religion it don’t matter your positions
This season’s bout the giving so our true gift is a given
