Christmas Time
McComb

These streets and these arcades are crowded with good cheer
Shoppers search for gifts to give the ones they think are dear
Muzak lends that special touch of Christmas atmosphere
But can you really stand the fear of the Blond cashier

Chorus: Don't you ever ask why
May your Christmases be white
It's Christmas Time
Can you feel it in the air?
The weather's fine

All across our planet earth
It's Christmas Eve
All around the world
The air is thick with make-believe

They play those songs you hear
You hear every year
But there's one song that's so sad
So sad you shed a tear

(Chorus)

What would you do if you were alone at Christmas Time?
Would it give you much faith in mankind?
The parties are oozing with noisy Philistines
Their music and their lights
And their ecstatic social slime

(Chorus)
