Christmas Queens Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, hi Sharon!
Huh, huh, oh sorry sisters, I'm- I'm late
Unfashionably late let me take your cape
Little dead riding hood
This would've been my last Christmas
Yeah, I can still smell the
Peppermint schnapps on your breath
You want something else to drink?
Any of you girls got any eggnog?
God, I am hangover by the chimney with care
So she's been at the disco all night long
Too good to hang out with us?
Hey hey hold up
Do you still make the discos?
Yeah yeah yeah, I get it disco's dead, yeah
So am I
