Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance, But you still catch my eye. Tell me, baby, Do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year, It doesn't surprise me. Merry Christmas. I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying "I love you". I meant it. Now I know what a fool I've been, But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. Oh, oh, baby. A crowded room. Friends with tired eyes. I'm hiding from you And your soul of ice. My god, I thought you were someone to rely on. Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on. A face on a lover with a fire in his heart. A man under cover, but you tore me apart. Now I've found a real love. You'll never fool me again. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. Last Christmas I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away. This year To save me from tears I'll give it to someone special. A face on a lover with a fire in his heart. I gave you my heart. A man under cover, but you tore him apart. Maybe next year I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special. Special. Someone. Someone. I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special. Who give me something in return. I'll give it to someone— Hold my heart and watch it burn. I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone special. I thought you were here to stay. How could you love me for a day. I thought you were someone special. Gave your my heart. I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone— Last Christmas I gave you my heart. You gave it away. I'll give it to someone— I'll give it to someone—

Out of all the reindeers you know you're the mastermind Run, run Rudolph, Randolph ain't too far behind Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down Run, run Rudolph 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round Said Santa to a boy child "What have you been longing for?" "All I want for Christmas is a Rock and Roll electric guitar" And then away went Rudolph a whizzing like a shooting star Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town, come on Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down Run, run Rudolph, reeling like a merry-go-round Said Santa to a girl child "What would please you most to get?" "A little baby doll that can cry, sleep, drink and wet" And then away went Rudolph a whizzing like a Saber jet Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down Run, run Rudolph 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round

Now how did I guess You were going to express Your disdain at the crane With the bright fairy lights And you’d moan at the snow ‘Cos your car wouldn’t go Oh it’s cliched To be cynical At Christmas You don’t have a tree And your smile has a fee All the same, here’s a card For your boring facade Jingle Bells, piney smells All the boys and the girls Say it’s cliched To be cynical At Christmas Oh it’s cliched To be cynical At Christmas See how we yawn At your bile and your scorn It’s a beautiful day Peace on Earth has been played Make a noise with your toys And ignore the killjoys ‘Cos it’s cliched To be cynical At Christmas Oh it’s cliched To be cynical At Christmas I saw three ships Come sailing in Come sailing in Come sailing in I saw three ships Come sailing in On Christmas Day In the morning

Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas All the children are tucked in their beds Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads Snowball fighting, it's so exciting baby I love you and you love me And that's the way it's got to be I loved you from the start 'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each other's hearts Where is Santa? At his sleigh? Tell me why is it always this way? Where is Rudolph? Where is Blitzen, baby? Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas All the children are tucked in their beds Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads Snowball fighting, it's so exciting baby Yeah, yeah, yeah I love you and you love me And that's the way it's got to be I loved you from the start 'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each other's hearts Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with you

It was Christmas Eve babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me, won't see another one And then he sang a song The Rare Old Mountain Dew I turned my face away And dreamed about you Got on a lucky one Came in eighteen to one I've got a feeling This year's for me and you So happy Christmas I love you baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you It's no place for the old When you first took my hand On a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me You were handsome You were pretty Queen of New York City When the band finished playing They howled out for more Sinatra was swinging, All the drunks they were singing We kissed on a corner Then danced through the night The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day You're a bum You're a punk You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy blaggard Happy Christmas your arse I pray God it's our last The boys of the NYPD choir Still singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day I could have been someone Well so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me babe I put them with my own Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you The boys of the NYPD choir Still singing "Galway Bay" And the bells are ringing out For Christmas day
