holiday release of a not-christmas song from my not-christmas album that has the word "christmas" in it a lot
DEAR EVERYONE: DO NOT BUILD THE CHRISTMAS CAR BOMB. ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL CAR BOMBS, LIVING OR DEAD, IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL
lyrics
I know it sounds like it's a lie
Something too bold to even try
Despite the years of work put in
my knees still shake when I think about it
Build the Christmas car bomb
Take the Christmas Staten Island Ferry
Build the Christmas car bomb
and it's alright to write a Christmas song in
May this one set our past aside
May all our Christmases be white
Though I can see it in my brain
I still get chills when I try to start it
Build the Christmas car bomb
Take the Christmas Staten Island Ferry
Build the Christmas car bomb
and it's alright to write a Christmas song in May
And when you play the shaker
I want you to imagine
that you're filling up a tiny world
with a dose of artificial snow
Where the blizzards are relentless
always rising with the upbeat
and the little penguin trapped inside
watches life become a frozen hell
Take the Christmas Staten Island Ferry
When you build the Christmas car bomb
know it's alright to be the worst at something new
and it's alright to sing a Christmas song in June

Your review is public. Writing something brief but thoughtful here can help win you new fans as surely as writing “me like” can ensure they write you off. 200 characters remaining OK Glass
