It Doesn't Often Snow At Christmas lyrics

Christmas is not all it's cracked up to be

Families fighting around a plastic tree

Nothing on the TV that you'd want to see

And it's hardly ever snowing the way it's meant to be

Like in white Christmas year after year

Bing Crosby, Bring Crosby, are you listening to me?

It doesn't often snow at Christmas

The way it's meant to do

But I'll still have a glow at Christmas

Because I'll be with you

The Christmas message was long ago lost

Now it's all about shopping and how much things cost

It's meant to be goodwill as well as synthetic fun

And what this is this year's festive number one

It doesn't often snow at Christmas

The way it's meant to do

But I'll still have a glow at Christmas

Because I'll be with you

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
