Lyrics

VERSE 1
He's growing a beard
He's dying his hair
He's ho-ho-ho-ing like he just don't care
That bright red suit makes him a crazy fool
It's the only time his paunch looks cool
That's when you know
When you see the signs
Between the lines you know

CHORUS
He's gone Christmas

VERSE 2
She's got a list
She's checking it twice
She thinks everyone in the world is nice
Any excuse to keep on shopping
From mall to mall she'll be hip-hip-hopping
You know
When you see the signs
Between the lines you know

CHORUS
She's gone Christmas
It's the music
She's gone Christmas
It's the mistletoe
Gone Christmas
It's the magic
It's a special kind of madness

BRIDGE
Outside it's snowing
The fire is glowing
There's nothing like knowing you're home

VERSE 3
The lights down low
The kids in bed
His wire rims resting on his head
She takes his hand and on the count of three
They start rocking 'round the Christmas tree
That's when you know
When you see the signs
Between the lines you know

CHORUS
They've gone Christmas
They've gone Christmas
They've gone Christmas
It's the music
They've gone Christmas
It's the mistletoe
Gone Christmas
It's the magic
It's a special kind of madness
