jreg – a christmas story lyrics

oh, h+llo
i was just reading one of my favorite christmas stories
would you like to hear it?
why don’t you grab a warm cup of cocoa and relax
it should be a short tale

i wanna to show you something, said the voice
billy rub bed his eyes at the noise and looked around the living room
the whole place was surrounded in yellow and blue
tinsel stuck toward the wall
and the ceiling
and beneath the green plastic wreath hung above the fireplace, three fluffy red stockings dangled from the mantle

thе christmas tree his family kept in the garage all yеar was now fixed on a carpet
in the center of the room
sparkling, with stars and lightbulbs and standing in front of it
with a smile on his face and a glimmer in his eyes was the jolly man himself
his big nose frostbitten red
his cheeks rosy
his big coat b+ttoned up tight and cozy

“wait”, billy said
something felt off, not like it should
he was sleepy and his stomach was hurting from all he had eaten before bed
“you’re here already?”, billy said
and looked over his shoulder to the digital clock on the coffee table
11:28, it read
behind the tree the curtains were drawn closed
“well i had to wait and see that your parents were asleep, didn’t i?”
santa spoke
red mitts brushed crumbs off his beard
and billy felt, weird

he was nine now and the older he got the slower the holidays were to get here and the quicker they were to leave, but
here was was
standing in a room with decorations and santa clause and nowhere to be but now and still
he felt, weird

not in his stomach, but, in his head
it was like when he and his dad flew to australia when
billy got on the plane, it was snowy, and cold
and when he got off the air was dry and hot
that was weird getting used to

he looked at the stockings again

“come on, billy”, santa said
“where’s your holiday spirit?”

of course when he went to sleep he expected christmas but didn’t expect it to come so fast
“don’t you wanna see what it’s like where i live?”
santa said, “where we have christmas forever?”
beneath his frosted bushy eyebrows santa’s eyes didn’t glimmer
he took a step towards billy
billy stepped back, somewhere the floor cracked
“come outside”, he said, “your spirit is going to get cold, come outside, now”

billy fled, he didn’t want to be in the same room as santa anymore
his feet left the carpet and slipped on the floor
he could hear the trump of santa’ footsteps coming after him
in the dim light he could see the hallway

billy caught himself on the coffee table and pushed himself up all the way
and ran forward, the hallway wasn’t far
he turned the corner, he slammed into something hard
he feel backwards, he knocked his head
“what are you doing?”
someone said

billy opened his eyes
and looked up at his dad
“i can’t believe you’re awake”, he said, grabbing billy’s hand
“next year, no more halloween candy before bed
if it has you running around the house like this”, he said
“come on, let’s both get back to sleep”

billy’s dad hoisted him up, and turned to leave
from over his shoulder
billy looked back at the scene
in the living room, there were no decorations at all
