LYRICS:
Stepping on a squeaky toy
and tripping down the stairs
Looking in the mirror
Why is there tinsel in my hair?
Writing New Year’s resolutions
while eating pumpkin pie – for breakfast
The living room needs attention
I’m not even gonna try
Chorus:
It’s the day after Christmas
It’s like waking from a dream
Chaos and disorder
But it’s not what it seems.
We had a very Merry Christmas
We are truly blessed
We’ll keep all the memories
And disregard the rest.
The house must be a gift to me
because it’s covered with wrapping paper
Empty boxes all about
I’ll deal with them later
There’s Football on channel two
late this afternoon
Friends are coming, guess I’d better
clean up the tv room
Chorus:
It’s the day after Christmas
It’s like waking from a dream
Chaos and disorder
But it’s not what it seems.
We had a very Merry Christmas
We are truly blessed
We’ll keep all the memories
And disregard the rest.
I’m not worried ‘bout our meals
We’ve enough to last a week
I guess we’ve gained a bit of weight
Our situation’s not unique
I wish our friends around the world
A year of peace and joy.
And lots of gifts and kindness
to every boy and girl.
[Teenage voice, frustration] MOM!!!
[spoken] I honestly didn’t know it needed batteries.
Chorus:
It’s the day after Christmas
It’s like waking from a dream
Chaos and disorder
But it’s not what it seems.
We had a very Merry Christmas
We are truly blessed
We’ll keep all the memories
And disregard the rest.
It’s the day after Christmas.
Yeah, it’s the day after Christmas.
