The Long Blondes - Christmas Is Cancelled lyrics

Came back from late night shopping

Saw your shadow on the curtain

I presumed you let your self in

with the key you'd yet to return

You asked me how I'd been

And if I'd seen much snow

Skilfully avoiding things that happened here a year ago

So she's turned you out has she

well I cant say I'm surprised

After last years festive past

I find it hard to sing goodbyes

I slipped through slush on Boxing Day

the shops were shut no films were on

You swanned around to hers and left a note to say you'd gone

Stood by the fire place

You look ridiculous

You cant just come and stay here

like you did last Christmas

You know what you did wrong

and Christmas well Christmas is cancelled this year

The last thing I expected

was to come and find you knocking

at my door waiting for a treat in Christmas stockings ( how shocking)

Don't take you jacket off this is not you home

Just raise you glass to two more people spending Christmas day alone

Stood by the fire place

You look ridiculous

You cant just come and stay here like you did last Christmas

You know what you did wrong

and Christmas and Christmas well Christmas is cancelled this year

No mum don't worry about me il just have fish and chips for tea

I'll watch the queen and go to sleep

I'll watch the queen and go to sleep

Stood by the fire place

You look ridiculous

You can't just come and stay here like you did last Christmas

You know what you did wrong

and Christmas and Christmas well Christmas is cancelled this year

You know what you did wrong

and Christmas and Christmas well Christmas is cancelled this year

No mum, don't worry about me, just have a happy Christmas x 2

Christmas is cancelled this year
