The Lyrics
Was thinking of the big online shopping I am committing myself to this Christmas, realized I was cutting it close, and was laughing at myself when I wrote this 5 minutes later. Enjoy.
I'll be broke this Christmas
just you wait and see
Got to shop got to buy
everything I see
Credit cards I have them
Can't help myself you know
Got to spend got to buy
Even in the snow
Crowded stores rude sales clerks
Cops are everywhere
And now I have a headache
from all the bright lights glare
Loaded down with presents
from my shopping spree
I'll be broke this Christmas
You can count on me.....
just you wait and see
Got to shop got to buy
everything I see
Credit cards I have them
Can't help myself you know
Got to spend got to buy
Even in the snow
Crowded stores rude sales clerks
Cops are everywhere
And now I have a headache
from all the bright lights glare
Loaded down with presents
from my shopping spree
I'll be broke this Christmas
You can count on me.....

Reading this makes me worry about what Christmas will be like this year! I've been unemployed and afraid to go into suicidal spending while I shop this year! Here's a gift card worth $555!
A few pacing gliches, but overall, well done
I like this Sir, Please add, OK?
And you cant wait until after new years day and yous welfare check comes and your no longer broke
Not only buying gifts but mailing all those Christmas Cards and Packages on the Interstate a snowstorm and the traffics all snarled up as snowplows clear the way
And Leftovers all the way to New Years Day
