The Lyrics
Rotten and brown, the Christmas tree,
’cause the Christmas party stopped
with the new year; it’s now summery—
ten months since the tree was chopped.
Rotten, unsound, the Christmas tree—
not a leaf left on the thing.
Date that it died has gone way by.
Out you gotta heft the thing.
You’ve taken a sentimental feeling very near
to voices inside your noggin.
Time for some memory joggin’.
Gotta throw out the Christmas tree;
it’s was past the holidays.
Gotta stop acting sketchily
in a stewed Old Fashioneds daze.
’cause the Christmas party stopped

You’ve taken a sentimental feeling very near
to voices inside your noggin.
Time for some memory joggin’.
Gotta throw out the Christmas tree;
it’s was past the holidays.
Gotta stop acting sketchily
in a stewed Old Fashioneds daze.
