lyrics

I’m on my way to my folks’ place
Where we’ll all spend Christmas Eve
And I’m praying we’ll behave and
Keep the tidings of peace
Got a long list of the subjects
That we shouldn’t talk about
This Christmas at my parents house

They’ve got the news on, I put my shoes on
Take a walk around the block
Momma lost her hearing aids
She turns the volume to the top
Learned my lesson
Dont ask questions
Let the pundits duke it out
This Christmas
At my parents house

Visions of freedom are dancing in my head
Might be cause I’m sleepin in my childhood bed
Where despite my self improvement
And the good mood I’ve been in
I get here and i am seventeen again

Santa brought me pods of coffee
For the keurig I don’t have
But it’s amazing with some Baileys
That old magic, half-and-half
So the cat pissed on my jacket
He’ll get the benefit of the doubt
Cause oh how that tabby
Makes my parents happy
Since I moved out

There’s nothing so merry
Being with the ones you love
And there’s nothing like family
Cause who else can you trust
To bring up that one time
I was just nine
And I tinkled in the bed
Next year I’ll take my Christmas break in Greece instead

We come in with good intentions
And we all hope for the best
But we all know that old tango
And its tough to change the steps
So let’s drink up
Call my shrink up
Soon I’ll be sitting on her couch
Talking bout Christmas at my parents'
It's Christmas at my parents'
Christmas at my parents' house
