about
Ol' Jordy's trying to be pretty serious here, huh? Those of us who are really privileged get to be happy, and some of us are able to forget our worries for a bit. This song is for the people who don't have that luxury.
lyrics
is it christmas yet,
the leaves are cold and brown?
the lights are green and red
at every shop in town.
the sugarplums won't dance
when you can't stop your mind to rest,
so make your christmas lists
as soon as you forget.
geez, you guys!
jesus christ,
you'd come back soon if you really did know what's right.
is it christmas yet,
or has it been too long?
we used to dream and wait
but all our dreams are gone
when little children rest
soundly in their beds
and moms and dad stay up
stuck inside their heads.
the leaves are cold and brown?
the lights are green and red
at every shop in town.
the sugarplums won't dance
when you can't stop your mind to rest,
so make your christmas lists
as soon as you forget.
geez, you guys!
jesus christ,
you'd come back soon if you really did know what's right.
is it christmas yet,
or has it been too long?
we used to dream and wait
but all our dreams are gone
when little children rest
soundly in their beds
and moms and dad stay up
stuck inside their heads.
