Once a year
(Lonnie Kjer & Stefan Mørk)



You buy a tree at overprice
to set inside with bells and lights
dress up
uncle Dan in red and white
Make them laugh all night O' Holy Christ
Let's start up easy short and tall
and brace religon after all
A nap and church and then you're on your way
drink for fellow jay, hip hip hurray

So let's Christmas, let's spend it, the money we don't have
Let's Christmas, let's waste it, the time we want so bad
spoil the kids, teach them all about greed
sing sing sing as if we all believe ho ho it's here
but it's only once a year

Buy more food than you can eat
drink until your blue ey
es bleed
open presents, smile in return
God bless all old aunt Betty, burn burn burn
Let's go on shopping in spree
sit our kids on a stranger's knees
buy a photo no one gets to see
smile at everybody happily

Let's Christmas, let's spend it, the money we don't have
Let's Christmas, let's waste it, the time we want so bad
spoil the kids, teach them all about greed
sing sing sing as if we all believed ho ho it's here
but it's only once a year
Now this might seem a little bit forced
but since we're all divorced
Let's tell your kids more lies, and celebrate Christmas twice


So let's Christmas, let's spend it, the money we don't have
Let's Christmas, let's waste it, the time we want so bad
spoil the kids, teach them all about greed
sing sing sing as if we all believe ho ho it's here
but it's only once a year


ho ho it's here
but it's only once a year

ho ho it's here
but it's only once a year
