《Suddenly It’s Christmas》歌词

[00:00:00] Suddenly It's Christmas (Live)-Loudon Wainwright III

[00:00:01] Suddenly it's Christmas

[00:00:03] Right after Hallowe'en

[00:00:06] Forget about Thanksgiving

[00:00:08] It's just a buffet in between

[00:00:10] There's lights and tinsel in the windows

[00:00:13] They're stocking up the shelves

[00:00:15] Santa's slaving at the North Pole

[00:00:17] In his sweatshop full of elves

[00:00:23] There's got to be a build-up

[00:00:26] To the day that Christ was born

[00:00:28] The halls are decked with pumpkins

[00:00:31] And the ears of Indian corn

[00:00:33] Dragging through the falling leaves

[00:00:36] In a one-horse open sleigh

[00:00:38] Suddenly it's Christmas

[00:00:40] Seven weeks before the day

[00:00:43] Suddenly it's Christmas

[00:00:45] The longest holiday

[00:00:48] When they say "Season's Greetings"

[00:00:49] They mean just what they say

[00:00:52] It's a season it's a marathon

[00:00:55] Retail eternity

[00:00:57] It's not over till it's over

[00:00:59] And you throw away the tree

[00:01:07] Outside it's positively balmy

[00:01:10] In the air nary a nip

[00:01:13] Suddenly it's Christmas

[00:01:15] Unbuttoned and unzipped

[00:01:18] Yes they're working overtime

[00:01:20] Santa's little runts

[00:01:22] Christmas comes but once a year

[00:01:25] And goes on for two months

[00:01:28] Christmas carols in December

[00:01:31] And November too

[00:01:33] It's no wonder we're depressed

[00:01:36] When the whole thing is through

[00:01:38] Finally it's January

[00:01:40] Let's sing "Auld Lang Syne"

[00:01:42] But here comes another heartache

[00:01:45] Shaped like a Valentine

[00:01:48] Suddenly it's Christmas

[00:01:50] The longest holiday

[00:01:52] The season is upon us

[00:01:54] A pox it won't go away

[00:01:57] It's a season it's a marathon

[00:01:59] Retail eternity

[00:02:01] It's not over till it's over

[00:02:04] And you throw away the tree

[00:02:06] No it's not over till it's over

[00:02:09] And you throw away the tree

[00:02:11] It's still not over till it's over

[00:02:14] And you throw away the tree
