Lyrics

If Every Day Were Christmas

If every day were Christmas
Here's what I would do
Send for all the catalogues and shop on e-bay too
I'd circle everything I see page one through two, two, two
If every day were Christmas
That's what I would do

If every day were Christmas
I'd sit by the fire
And line up all my presents
Just to look at and admire
I'd slowly open one by one
Then throw them all away
'Cos what the heck tomorrow
Is another Christmas day

If every day were Christmas
We'd have one great big tree
And all the presents under it
Would be hopefully for me
I might let my wife, Debbie
Have one gift, maybe more
But if she's cookin' Christmas dinner
What would she need them for

If every day were Christmas
I'd try not to get spoiled
I'd save the pretty ribbon and fold up the fancy foil
I'd give the kids some cartons and send them on their way
Across the road to Grandma's house
To spend the Christmas day




If every day were Christmas
Of all the thing I see'd
There'd likely be a few things
That I probably wouldn't need
Amongst the pretty boxes
Some things that I could share
Like a lady's 'lectric razor
Or some hot pink underwear.

If every day were Christmas
Oh the money to be made
Economy's in an uproar
O'er the retail Christmas trade
There'd be no need for forests,
Or swamps or scenic spots
We could pave them all and turn them
Into Walmart parking lots.

If every day were Christmas
It'd probably soon get old
There'd be no summer picnics
We'd be always in the cold
If every day were Christmas
Oh how could I be gay
For I'd rather have folks honor me
If each day were my birthday.
