X-Mas Card Lyrics

you thought i was confused
i thought it was strange
you had it all figured out
you had it all wrong
i've been putting you off
for months now
your letter
i never replied to
you raise the alarm
you call the police

i've been the supporting role
it's clear
but now i'm stealing scenes
and spilling beer
it's just one less christmas card
this year
i fold my newspaper in half
it's better left unread i say
the propoganditst's hard at play

i don't think it's sad
i don't think it's anything
that i promised to
and i never do.

i've been the supporting role it's clear
but now i'm stealing scenes and spilling beer
it's one less christmas card i'll toss this year
one less christmas card this year
so a merry goodbye
from me to you
and a happy cram
the whole year through

if i ever walk away
will you take me
by the hair
and remember
i said i loved you
i said i loved you once?
