Fuck This Christmas
Earl Sweatshirt feat. Tyler The Creator Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to my home, the place that I hate
The place that I love, the Planet of the Apes
The place that I loathe, the boy minus father
Equals boy minus heart, always testing mama
Mic sessions thrash, life lessons trashed
Nights get cold as the knife that I grab
Zoom to your wife room take her life with a stab
Sure her ass look nice, it'd look nicer in a bag
And slung over shoulder, village slum soldier
Bayonet bloods when my cup runneth over
With sith lord dark side of the force
In the trunk of a Porsche tryna butt fuck Yoda
Shotgun, drop T, Earl flow shogun
Jabbing with a pen while you faggots getting toes done
Hold up, I was four going on grown up
So before you niggas tell me I'm nuts, you better grow some, faggot

Fuck this Christmas
Fuck this Christmas (Nigga fuck Santa Claus)
Fuck this Christmas
Ain't nothing for you (Ain't no gift for you)

Crazy mothafuckas in the North Pole causing ruckus
And the punk nut-crackers couldn't cuff us, how I fuck her
It was quiet how I stepped in, I crept in with my cock out
Now she's having make-out sessions with my weapons
Drunk a fifth of eggnog, stole Santa's reindeer
Joy-rode the North Pole, steering is a bitch so
I hopped out and ask some Jasper elves for some info
Where I can burn some Christmas trees with large amounts of thick snow
I've been acting naughty problem child in attendance
John Ritter said he taught me how to mothafuck a Christmas
Dismissing all the wanting and the presents are forsaken
See if you're the gift from God then I'm the Christmas wrap from Satan

Fuck this Christmas
Fuck this Christmas (Nigga fuck Santa Claus)
Fuck this Christmas
Ain't nothing for you (Ain't no gift for you)

You, bitch you can't get nothing
No more, no more presents, no more cranberry sauce
Bitch you can't get nothing no more
No more fleeces for your caprices and shit
Bitch give me my mothafuckin' presents back, ain't none for you
Alright for real, you gon' have to give me my fucking presents back
Cause those are for my grandma, yeah that thong, that was for my grandma
Give me my presents back, give me my gifts

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Earl Sweatshirt, Tyler The Creator, and Hodgy Beats’s song “Fuck This Christmas” express a deep sense of dissatisfaction and disconnection with the holiday season. The opening lines, “welcome to my home, the place that I hate” set the tone for the entire verse, which uses a series of contrasting statements to illustrate the disconnect between the artists’ emotions and the expectations of the season. The line, “the place that I love, the Planet of the Apes” juxtaposes the idealized images of the holiday season with the reality of gritty, violent movies. The artists express feelings of anger, frustration, and disillusionment, which they tie back to their early childhood experiences. Tyler raps, “Hold up, I was four going on grown up, so before you niggas tell me I'm nuts, you better grow some, faggot”, suggesting that he has held these feelings for a long time.


As the song progresses, the lyrics reveal a darker side, full of violence and aggression, highlighted in the line “Zoom to your wife room take her life with a stab”. The artists’ dissatisfaction with Christmas is not just limited to the holiday season, but extends to a feeling of general hopelessness and despair with the world at large. The repeated line “ain't nothing for you” reflects a sense of detachment and untetheredness that pervades the song, suggesting that there is little in the world that can bring them joy, not even the most celebrated holiday of the year.


Overall, the song is a biting commentary on the holiday season and the weight of expectations that it brings, as well as a reflection on the deeper societal and emotional forces that underlie feelings of dissatisfaction and disconnection.
