From the 2010 Suburban Sprawl Music Holiday Sampler.

lyrics

I'm not gonna get a snowy winter
everything's just gonna stay the same
there won't be plows coming down the street
Christmas gonna be another sunny fucking day

won't get to have my grandma's cooking
won't get to wear a hat or gloves
no more snowball fights at night
almost nothing 'bout December that I love

with possibly one exception
hanging above my door
I gotta say it's a great invention
and you know what it's for

Christmas doesn't have to be cold
as long as you got mistletoe
I don't mind if I'm missing the snow
as long as I got mistletoe

I won't get to spend all my money
on stuff that doesn't matter anyway
and I won't get to spend any time
with relatives who keep confusing me with uncle dave

I won't get to watch my father get drunk
I won't get to sit in church and stew
I won't get to just nod my head
and act like I don't have a different point of view

it's so hard to live so far away
there's so much that I miss
I know how to make everything okay
with just a little kiss

I don't need silver and I don't need gold
as long as I got mistletoe
it may not be dark and it may not be cold
but baby, I got mistletoe

go ahead fill my stocking with coal
just leave some room for mistletoe
there's no need to spend christmas alone
'cause baby, I got mistletoe
