Song Lyrics

Pine needles perfume hanging in the air
I took a tram to the city square
Decorations line the streets
Chalk dust underneath my feet
I walked through Chinatown alone

Televisions cheering – from the other room
I ran inside to see who bowled who
While the uncles where throwing darts
I got talking to the aunts
I don't know how but I guess they knew

Don't cancel Christmas this year
I'm saying I need you here
When wish list morning comes
And all the carols have been sung
I know theres things I'd have done
Differently they soon become my
New Years resolutions
All I feel is dissolution
I want my Christmas red and green and with you
Don't make it blue

Red and white of a candy cane
Thoughts roll back that I can't explain
Like when I tied the tinsel to the patio
Where I swung you round to and fro
Pavlova , paper crowns
There ain't no tinsel now
And they've just called stumps on day two

Don't cancel Christmas this year
I'm saying I need you here
When wish list morning comes
And all the carols have been sung
I know theres things I'd have done
Differently they soon become my
New Years resolutions
All I feel is dissolution
I want my Christmas red and green and with you
Don't make it blue

Pavlova, paper crowns
There ain't no tinsel now
And the uncles have started singing
"Blue, blue, blue suede shoes,
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes,
You can do what you want but lay off of my blue suede shoes"

Don't cancel Christmas this year
I'm saying I need you here
When wish list morning comes
And all the carols have been sung
I know theres things I'd have done
Differently they soon become my
New Years resolutions
All I feel is dissolution
I want my Christmas red and green and with you
Don't make it blue
