about
The first ever anti-consumerism holiday song by Beth Wishes.
lyrics
Please don’t get me anything for Christmas
I’ve got too much crap already
And I’m running out of room
So bring me hugs and kisses
And your warmest lovin’ wishes
But nothing my dear friends will have to carry when I move
Please don’t give me anything for Christmas
I’ve still got everything I’ve wished for
From the time when I was small
So feed me chocolate kisses
Baby do my dirty dishes
But there’s not a spot for what you’ve bought on my counters, shelves or walls
‘Cause I’ve got cabinets full of gadgets I never use
And my garage is a barrage of recyclable refuse
And my closet doors and dresser drawers
Well I can’t close them anymore
They’re so full of clothes I haven’t worn since 1982
So PLEASE don’t get me anything for Christmas
My life looks like a yard sale and there’s hardly room for me
The whole point of this riff is
This year the perfect gift is
Nothing please for Christmas
Just cross me off your gift list
Nothing please for Christmas for me
