Songtexte Christmas, Why You Gotta Do Me Like This - Eels

Christmas, why you gotta do me like this?
I never did nothing, but jingle all the way
I put up my lights, and I hung the mistletoe
So why did you have to leave me all alone?

I always look forward when the day starts getting cold
I know that my babies gonna keep me plenty warm
But now the days are bitter cold
And the nights are black as the cold
Hung in the stocking
For my empty cold black soul

Christmas comes but once a year
Good tidings and good cheer
I just don't want to see it this year

Christmas, why you gotta do me like this
I always embraced you, felt you close inside my heart
Away in the manging manger
I'm way still away
And she isn't coming back
Christmas, you're just another day

But I don't wanna to live through
