Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not so bad
I just hate to see a good time had
By everyone, but me
On this lonely Christmas Eve
I hear them up and down
And up and down the street
[Verse 2]
They're making noise, noise, noise, noise
How I hate their happy noise
There's only one thing I hate more
Come to think of it
And that's the people who keep
Making it
[Verse 3]
Feast, feast, feast, feast
They'll have more than anyone could ever eat
Me, I'm stuck here with my cream of wheat
There's no one here to feast with me
On this lonely Christmas Eve
[Verse 4]
Don't they know I'm up here all alone
In my cave, up in the hills?
How I wish that this would go away
This dreadful holiday
That they call Christmas day
[Verse 5]
When they're done with all their Christmas noise
And they've had their Christmas feast
Just when I think that I might finally
Get a moments peace they start to
[Verse 6]
Sing, sing, sing, sing
Now, I'll never get no sleep
I'm screaming out the window
But, it don't do no good
They sing and sing and sing
All through the neighborhood
Sing, sing, sing
[Verse 7]
They take their little break and then
They do it all again
[Verse 8]
It's a lonely Christmas Eve
