Christmas time [Don't let the bells end] lyrics

1

Feigning joy and surprise

At the gifts we despise over mulled wine

With you

On the 25th day of the 12th month

The sleigh bells are in time ringing true

How we cling each day long

To the snowflakes and hope in hell

That it won't end

Don't let the bells end

Christmas time, just let them ring in peace

Well the weather is cruel,

And the season of Yule warms the heart

But it still hurts

You've got your career

Spent the best part of last year apart

And it still hurts

So that's why I pray each and every Christmas day

That it won't end

Don't let the bells end

Christmas time, just let them ring in peace

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Dust underneath the mistletoe leaves

When you're not here,

You went away upon boxing day,

Now how the hell am I gonna make it into the New Year

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Christmas time, just let them ring in peace

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

Christmas time, don't let the bells end

1. The band managed to slip some "inappropriate" expressions into this seemingly innocuous Christmas song:

bells end: bell-end = dickhead (glans; annoying person)

ring in peace: ringpiece = arsehole
