lyrics

After Mom threw a gingerbread house at Dad
He stormed off mad, and has been crashing at my Uncle’s pad

We visit him on the weekend
The garbage full of beer cans
He says he doesn’t miss her
Just trying out Tinder

Mom tells me Dad kissed a dental hygienist
And this other time he had the nerve to call her fat

I tell her it’s a rough patch
But no need to get un-hitched
You’re also hard to defend
After that fling with his best friend

I’ll gladly trade my presents
For a Christmas with my parents
I’ll stop bullying other kids
If they’d just hold hands again

Santa, Jesus or whoever you are
Let my Dad move back in
From Christmas to eternity
I just want a normal family

I’ll gladly trade my presents
For a Christmas with my parents
I’ll start making real friends
If they’d just hold hands again

Santa, Jesus or whoever you are
Let my Dad move back in
From Christmas to eternity
I just want a boring family

I’ll gladly trade my presents
For a Christmas with my parents
I’ll stop calling social services
If they’d just hold hands again

Santa, Jesus or whoever you are
Let my Dad move back in
From Christmas to eternity
I just want a happy family
