1.	It's Christmas Time (Blizzard Version) 02:49 video	lyrics	buy track
It’s Christmas time - we’re as miserable as sin. Everybody’s out - we’re staying in. There’s nothing much to say so we don’t say anything and it’s Christmas time again. It’s Christmas time and it’s not how it should be. There aren’t any lights and there isn’t any tree. There’s only you and there’s only me and it’s Christmas time again. It’s Christmas time and it’s just like we feared. Everyone’s invited – no one has appeared. Not even a fairy or the man with the beard is coming here. It’s Christmas time and we’re not going out. We’ll just sit around and moan about how it’s Christmas time and we don’t want to do whatever other people do at Christmas time. It’s Christmas time and it’s not what we hope for. The nights have all drawn in - the days are falling short. It feels like ten o’clock but it’s only four in the afternoon – oh the gloom It’s Christmas time - we’re as miserable as sin. Everybody’s out - we’re staying in. There’s nothing much to say so we don’t say anything and it’s Christmas time again. Yes it’s Christmas time again. Yes it’s Christmas time again. Yes it’s Christmas time again.
