The Lyrics

Joining the Xmas fray in spirit, if not in reality.
It's Christmas and I've got to find it
A present for my mom and dad
To find it I'd suffer anything and be glad
I'll go anywhere to save money
I don't make a lot at my job
To spend low, I'll even face an angry mob
I'm goin' to Target
To shop for mom and dad
To shop for mom and dad

I drive in the lot with my Mazda
The parking lot's always so packed
Inside there, I see the Xmas stuff that they stacked
I notice the fat noisy children
And parents who look just as bad
It's Xmas-who came up with this stupid plan?
I'm moshing in Target
To shop for mom and dad
To shop for mom and dad

I try some clothes on
I look at myself in the mirror
I know it costs nothing on credit
And like mom and dad can't wear this
It looks good on me
I'm still looking for
That great gift for them
While looking for me

It's Christmas and I haven't found it
A present for my mom and dad
While in there, I bought half the store and it's sad
I still couldn't find them a present
I guess I'll drive down the street more
A couple miles, I'm gonna find another store
I'm goin' to Target
To shop for mom and dad
To shop for mom and dad


Aahhh, you know the routine.

Ishould have explained that "Target" is a chain of huge stores like Wal-mart. Dave told me to do Who songs and I always do what I'm told.
