Текст Kylie Minogue, Iggy Pop — Christmas Wrapping with Iggy Pop

Bah humbug but that’s too strong!
‘Cause it is my favorite holiday
But all this year’s been a busy blur
Don’t think I have the energy
To add to my already mad rush
Just ’cause it’s ’tis the season
The perfect gift for me would be
Completions and connections left
From last year, ski shopping, counter most interesting
Had his number but never the time
(Most of ’81 passed along those lines)
So deck those halls, trim those trees
Raise up cups of Christmas cheer
I just need to catch my breath
Christmas by myself this year

Calendar picture, frozen landscape
Chilled this room for twenty-four days
Evergreens, sparkling snow, get this winter over with
Flash back, to spring time, sun again (why?)
Would have been good to go for lunch
Couldn’t agree we were both free
We tried, we said we’d keep in touch
Didn’t of course ’til summer time
Out to the beach to his boat could have joined him
No this time, it was me, sunburn in the third degree
Now the calendar’s just one page
And of course I am excited
Tonight’s the night but I’ve set my mind
Not to do too much about it

(Christmas is over)
Oh, no you don’t!

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
But I think I’ll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
But I think I’ll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
But I think I’ll miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
But I think I’ll miss this one this

Hardly dashing through the snow
‘Cause I bundled up too tight
Last minute have-to-dos
A few cards a few calls
Because it’s R-S-V-P
No thanks, no party lights
It’s Christmas Eve, gonna relax
Turned down all of my invites
Last fall I had a night to myself
Same guy called, Halloween party
Waited all night for him to show
This time his car wouldn’t go, (I’m sorry)
Forget it, it’s cold, it’s getting late
Trudge on home to celebrate
In a quiet way, unwind
Doing Christmas right this time

Cool

A&P has provided me with the world’s smallest turkey
Already in the oven, nice and hot
Oh damn, guess what I forgot?
So on with the boots back out in the snow
To the only all-night grocery
When what to my wandering eyes should appear?
In the line is the guy
I’ve been chasing all year
(I’m spending this one alone) he said
(Need a break this year’s been crazy)
I said me too, but why are you..?
You mean you forgot cranberries too?
Then suddenly we laughed and laughed
Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic’s brought this tale
To a very happy ending

Merry Christmas, honey
(Merry Christmas baby)
Here it comes!

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Couldn’t miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Couldn’t miss this one this year

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Couldn’t miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Couldn’t miss this one this year

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
(Yeah, I can ski)
Couldn’t miss this one this year
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
(Really?)
Couldn’t miss this one this year
(It don’t look like I ski?)

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
(Well, I can ski)
Couldn’t miss this one this year
(So ski!)
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Couldn’t miss this one this year
(I can ski just fine)

Cool
