Christmas Is Cancelled Lyrics & Chords By The Long Blondes

Came back from late night shopping
Saw your shadow on the curtain.
I presume you let yourself in
With the key you've yet to return.

You ask me how I've been
And if I've seen much snow.
Skillfully avoiding things
That happened near a year ago.

So she's turned you out, has she?
Well, I can't say I'm surprised.
After last year's festive fuss
I find it hard to sympathise.

I slid through slush on Boxing Day,
The shops were shut, no films were on.
You swanned around to hers,
And left a note to say you'd gone.

Stood by the fireplace
You look ridiculous
You can't just come and stay here
Like you did last Christmas
You know what you did wrong
And Christmas, Christmas is cancelled this year

The last thing I expected
Was to come and find you knocking
At my door waiting for a treat
In Christmas stockings (how shocking!)

Don't take your jacket off
This is not your home.
Just raise a glass to two more people
Spending Christmas day alone.

Stood by the fireplace
You look ridiculous
You can't just come and stay here
Like you did last Christmas
You know what you did wrong
And Christmas, Christmas is cancelled this year

Oh no, don't worry about me
I'll just have fish and chips for tea.
I'll watch the Queen and go to sleep
I'll watch the Queen and go to sleep.

Stood by the fireplace
You look ridiculous
You can't just come and stay here
Like you did last Christmas
You know what you did wrong
And Christmas, Christmas is cancelled this year

Oh no, don't worry about me
Just have a happy Christmas
Oh no, don't worry about me
Just have a happy Christmas
