frank watkinson - christmas shopping. lyrics

[verse 1]
christmas trees with flashing lights
tinsel and baubles shining bright
light up the market square tonight and the shops are open late
local choir in the square, anyone who is anyone is there
they must be seen, to be seen, they care
although that’s up for debate
let’s not forget, the shops are open late

[verse 2]
the high street’s full of christmas smells
electronic santa’s ringing bells
and they’re making a bomb on the mulled wine sales
on this wintry christmas night
and reindeers with flashing noses
adorned with plastic christmas posies
whilе skinny santas sing a rock and roll song
about a star that’s burning bright
and don’t forget the shops are opеn late tonight
[verse 3]
there will be bargains galore, they can’t get enough
they’ll always want more
christmas jumpers, christmas hats
but don’t worry there’re plenty more out back

[verse 4]
from london town to carolina
everything is labelled, “made in china”
n0body asks about the why or how
here’s the money, we want it now
and why the panic? for heaven’s sake
when everything here is totally fake
from the cobbler selling the christmas laces
to the plastic smiles on those sellers faces

[verse 5]
and for those of you who want to pray, there’s a small church open down the way
though in these times of austerity, we will have to charge a small entrance fee
apart from that, it’s gonna be great
what with all the shops being open late

[outro]
i played that to my wife and um
she said, “you’re just an old gnarly”
and i said, “don’t you mean scrooge?”
and she goes, “no, scrooge got better”
merry christmas everybody
