Late For Christmas

[Hook]

I'm late for Christmas, I'm late for Christmas

I'm sorry Mom I wont be long, won't delay your wishes

Damn, I'm sorry fam, the demand of this day is viscious

I beg forgiveness, can't believe I'm late for Christmas

[Verse 1]

Walk around the town I hear the tambourines and whistles jingle

Cold, makes my fingers tingle, the sights and sounds of Christmas singles

Told, the tales of First Noels, and some are those of Santa Claus

Sold, sales, the first to sell, their grabby hands are like savage claws

With Family to see, so many presents to get

And I know its a lot, you shop till you drop but you're not finished it yet

A bit of finesse, Diminish that check, the hustle and bustle a bit of distress

"Will my girl or my boy, will they like this toy, will they fit in this dress?"

Buy her that dish, get her that bling, guys will like hammers and winterish things

Buy him that saw, get her that ring, try a microphone for those kids that can sing

Get him that game, give her a cat, kids get a train, what's better than that?

A plane, a bat, a shredder a hat, where is the cheddar better measure it stat

In fact, in fact, buy it all I'll refill my pocket later

I'm Talking to my neighbours, where's my list, oh, I dropped the paper

My wallet craters, all my sense walk out the door

Forgot What I'm shopping for, and now I'm lost in the store 

[Hook]

I'm late for Christmas, I'm late for Christmas

I'm sorry Mom I wont be long, won't delay your wishes

Damn, I'm sorry fam, the demand of this day is vicious

I beg forgiveness, can't believe I'm late for Christmas

[Verse 2]

Walk in the Church and there are carols at mass

Glare at what you wear and your class, stare like there's air in their glass 

Some will give you their skin others wouldn't share you a half

The wrath, And some a barrel of laughs, giving all that they have with no care of the math

Kids build men out of snow,  then they skate on the ice 

Take my advice, hope he's name you nice, Santa is taking his list and replaying it twice

Rudolph with your red nose can you shine a light

Guide the line tonight, make this Christmas bomb like dynamite

Wrapped in a band, some will give racks and stacks to dispassionate lands

Package in hand, back of the van, spinning on ice better pack it with sand 

All for this holiday, Oh God what I got to say  

Hop on a sleigh got flashy lights at night can't wait to put it all away

In boxes, I'm late for Christmas, I dropped a bag of riches

On these present but my lack of presence  might hit the angry switches

Stress it takes it's toll, Oh Lord please save my soul

Dog, Numb as a log, rum in the nog and I just drank the bowl

[Hook]

I'm late for Christmas, I'm late for Christmas

I'm sorry Mom I wont be long, won't delay your wishes

Damn, I'm sorry fam, the demand of this day is viscious

I beg forgiveness, can't believe I'm late for Christmas
