When I take off my make-up, I look old and defeated I'm not so dangerous Cry into my Christmas cake Starin' holes into me all night You should just give up 'cause our love's become sellin' secrets to the Russians They don't need The cold war is on between you and me
25 years old and a bachelor's degree Your parents helped out with graduation fees The loans were never enough The credit cards are callin' your bluff Hold your hand, cut them up, move away Or you'll be payin' them off 'till your kids grow up And do the same
There's no more runnin' water Wrappin' presents in the dark Move into your car Change where you park Too bad that job carolin' department stores fell through But the new year is right in front of you
Cry into your Christmas cake Don't know what else to do Don't know what else to do (Fa la la fa la la la la)
I fear I'm goin deaf I've got some sense left Give up some more to be with you (oooo) 'cause what good is seein' if love's not lookin' back at you (aahhh) And what good is feelin' if my hands aren't touchin' you
And another angel came down He was wearin' only a cloud He said, "Sew up the bad that you've done. Tomorrow, Christmas day comes." (Christmas day)
Cry into your Christmas cake Don't know what else to do Cry into your Christmas cake Don't know what else to do The new year's right in front of you (Fa la la fa la la la la)
