Christmas Will Be Soon
Lemon Demon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Christmas will be soon
Luring like the moon
Decorate your untamed nature
Christmas will be soon
Now, let go of Solstice and save our souls
Very very soon
Idols come and go,
Melting like the snow when sunlight comes
Play their drums
Play their drums
Cut down our twig shrine
Sit 'round the big pine beneath a star
This is who we are
One last toast to has-been ghosts
Ooh, Christmas will be soon
Let's stop burning Yule logs
In faith of fool's gods our kids won't know
Idols come and go
Ordinary folk floating like the smoke
We are adrift
Take this gift
Christmas!
Oh, now not one more word
I'm looking forward
So change your tune
Christmas will be soon
And the winds have changed now (The winds have changed)
And we are strange (And we are strange)
Now will you change your tune? (It will be soon)
Christmas will be soon
Decorate your untamed nature
Christmas will be soon
One last toast to has-been ghosts
Ooh, Christmas will be soon
Christmas will be soon
Christmas will be soon
Christmas, Christmas, Christmas
The lyrics to Lemon Demon's "Christmas Will Be Soon" urge listeners not to fear the approaching holiday season. The song acknowledges the lure of Christmas which is as irresistible as the pull of the moon. The first verse encourages people to embrace the upcoming holiday and decorate their natural selves. The second verse shifts the focus to the absurdity of worshipping idols and worshipping a Yule log. It then switches the tone to a sense of belonging and knowing who we are by cutting down twig shrines and sitting around a big pine tree beneath a star. The last verse wraps up the song by telling listeners to look forward to the approaching holiday season and embrace the winds of change that come with it.

Holy Christmas!!
Ok we need to have a serious talk
There is NO REASON for a song to sound this good, like it’s actually insane how grossly underrated this EP is compared to other music of his.
Every track is so punchy and danceable it’s not even funny. Neil please give me your creativity and talent.
And you want to know the crazy part???
Neil has been making this crazy awesome music for almost TWO DECADES!!!! Like how??? Neil on the off chance that you ever see this comment, you are on my list of favorite people, ever. Please keep making music.

YESSSSSS. I feel proud to be the first like of this comment. I know he has a whole life with a kid and a wife and responsibilities and shit but if he ever finds extra time and motivation I really really hope he keeps making original music like this! The only “celebrity” that I truly admire and aspire to be like.
