here it comes it's colder than it was i'm starting to relive the times i've never loved and the sun sleeps earlier than it does when i don't feel the lump inside my throat near my tied tongue oh december, you've taken away from me my means for comedy now i just want to sleep until 2017 oh december, you're sneaking into my room or you're stealing my sense of humor and i feel sick a month of post nasal drip and i've used up all my wit it's christmas and i feel like shit help me have a tolerable christmas please

another year of used up luck and i still found ways to fuck it up the holidays became a crutch to lean upon when i'm in this rut i walk around the snowy streets and sink into my self pity and feel like i'm the only one alone who wants more than gifts or mistletoe i know it's not all bad but this season bums me out i wanna be happy on christmas i wanna be running down the stairs i just wanna feel how i felt when i cared i wanna be excited for the presents how i felt when i was a kid but every year it gets harder to give a shit and i don't know if it's something that i did i'm the only one unhappy on christmas again now every year is the same theme cuz i turned myself into a fucking meme this year i turned 25 years old i can't complain about getting coal and one thing i know is that santa claus doesn't care if i fuck up at my retail job i wanna dissolve like a snow flake i'm so fake it's only a day, it's only a day it's hard to keep making jokes cuz sometimes that's what i feel like i am

i didn’t want a lot for christmas there was just on thing i hoped i just wanted a chance to be in my fantasy football Super Bowl i just needed 6 more points now i feel like a fuckin dork why did i fall short? i’m so mad about a fake sport i didn’t want a lot for christmas there was just on thing i hoped i just wanted a chance to be in my fantasy football Super Bowl my christmas present could’ve come early with most the games on christmas eve but Kevin Carroll beat me and he’s the worst one in our league i just needed 6 more points my defense got negative 1 point it was out of my control all i wanted for christmas was my fantasy football Super Bowl i was in first place and ran out of my luck and i could've won $700 bucks Kevin barely made the playoffs i hope he loses his day job santa couldn't give me the one i really needed it was melvin gordon's knee i don't want a lot for christmas now there's just one thing i hope i need mikey to win the last game and have kevin's team literally choke i didn't get my chance this year so i'll drown in christmas beer what more can i say? all i want for christmas is kevin carroll to lose the game

i literally just sang the original lyrics and added the word "fuckin" in a bunch of times and then ended it early cuz the original song is pretty long and y'all wouldn't wanna listen to me cover the whole thing

about

the year 2016 was a really shitty year for the world and my year wasn't great. it's hard to write funny christmas songs when the world sucks and when you're not feeling that funny. so here's my shot at that. hope you enjoy.
i love you all a lot.
happy holidays.

- mike

special thanks to my family for always keeping my holiday spirits moderately up.

special special thanks to hannah liuzzo for letting me borrow her bass so i could finish this record before christmas was over.
