To Be With You and Warm I’ve got a wish, this Christmas I hope it snows all day long I want to be wrapped up by the tree in the heat, in the hope of your arms I know it’s long been tradition to stand under hallways and doors and kiss under mistletoe, but I am a modern girl so let’s get this show on the road It’s seems so silly to ask for gift boxes taped to unwrap I’ve done my fair share of tearing And I’m planning to never look back It’s been a long year behaving But I know that Santa’s sincere When he makes up his mind I’ll make the good list this time I’ve been polite and well mannered all year It’s seems so silly to ask for something that I’d never miss I don’t need worldly possessions The thing that I want now is this The frost in the window pane steaming The city all covered in snow the star on the christmas tree must be giving my wish to me cuz you’re safe, you’re with me and we’re warm

Flat Screens 02:38
Flatscreens All good people it’s that time of year All good people rejoice It’s getting cold, get your mittens and gloves to warm up your little fingers All good people get ready the shopping mall parking lot is full it’s getting late to be buying your presents you gotta get it while the getting are getting And all of the children are building snowmen All the grandparents are watching them build them and to all of the people, who aren’t christians thanks for letting us steal the show All good people light your houses if you don’t deck the halls you’re dead You’ll be the laughing stock of the cudelsac neighborhood covenants are relentless And all of the snowmen are slowly melting But they’ll be back next year and so will this feeling If global warming means no more snowstorms I bet we’ll find a way to carry on All good people get your money I hope you've been saving all year cuz it ain’t as cheap as it looks on TV for all those flat screens, flat screens, flat screens We’re buying flat screens, flat screens, flat screens

Grownup Holiday Streets are quiet, snow is falling and chimney smoke is, moving slowly and in the houses, warm with bodies All their shadows telling stories Everyone around me seems to see something that I used to easily but I am older now than I have ever been before I’m grown up I’m grown up All the tables, trimmed with turkeys stuff the stomachs of our families outside the carolers, singing hymnals all the children weak with wonder 
I used to be one of those with hope sugar plums just dancing in a row all the lightness of a little girl has left me slowly I’m grown up OH-OH-OH Oh, Santa Claus can you hear me now? I have been so far gone the past few years I am not sure what it takes to get back to Finding all the love and trust I had for you Streets are quiet, snow is falling Happy Holidays to all the grown ups
