You tiptoed down the stairs at 7: 35

I knew exactly what was running through your mind

Right there beside the tree, under the mistletoe

You said it's over and I hit the road

Why did we have to break up on Christmas?

Why did we have to wait all damn year?

I could've crossed off all of your wishlist

Saved me a whole lot of money and tears

That necklace for your mom, golf clubs for your dad

BarkBox for your dog, now, that one's not so bad (Bad)

I could've put the mall out of business

If we didn't wait to break up on Christmas

If it was Halloween, hell, even July 4th

Out in the pouring rain or love-drunk on your porch

I would've been just fine, okay, fine's not the word

But on the 25th, it sure does hurt

Why did we have to break up on Christmas?

Why did we have to wait all damn year?

I could've crossed off all of your wishlist

Saved me a whole lot of money and tears

That necklace for your mom, golf clubs for your dad

BarkBox for your dog, now, that one's not so bad (Bad)

I could've put the mall out of business

If we didn't wait to break up on Christmas

Yeah, yeah

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way

Why'd you have to go and wreck my favorite holiday? Hey

Why did we have to break up on Christmas?

Why did we have to wait all damn year?

I could've crossed off all of your wishlist

Saved me a whole lot of money and tears

That necklace for your mom, golf clubs for your dad

BarkBox for your dog, now, that one's not so bad (Bad)

I could've put the mall out of business

If we didn't wait to break up on Christmas
