The Lyrics:
Strings of street lights, even stop lights,
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.
Why:
Strings of street lights, Steven op lights,
Brink a blight red and green
As the hoppers shush Rome with their treasures.
Brink a blight red and green
As the hoppers shush Rome with their treasures.
