Christmas
Ramone Joey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with you
Where is Santa and his sleigh?
And tell me why was it always this way?
Where is Rudolph? Where is Blitzen baby?
Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas
All the children are tucked in their beds
Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads
Snow is falling, swirling falling, merry Christmas
I love you and you love me
And that's the way its got to be
Why have we been torn apart
'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each others hearts
All the children are tucked in their beds
Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads
Snow is falling falling falling baby
I love you and you love me
And that's the way that its got to be
Why have we been torn apart
Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each others hearts
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with
Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with you
Joey Ramone's "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" is a lively, warm-hearted tune that captures the spirit of the season, but with a poignant twist. It begins with a message of peace, with Joey singing, "Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight", three times. This is the song's most memorable line and it sets the scene for a celebration, but with a layer of melancholy. The song goes on to reference classic Christmas figures like Santa, his sleigh, Rudolph, and Blitzen to evoke the magic of the holiday.
However, Joey quickly turns the focus of the song back to the message of love and unity. He sings, "I love you and you love me, and that's the way it's got to be". These lyrics are a potent reminder that, no matter what happens, what unites us is greater than what divides us. The song continues to build a rich, detailed picture of holiday cheer, with images of snow falling and sugar plum fairies dancing in children's heads.
