The Day After Thanksgiving

There's still plenty of leaves

Golden on the trees

Hoodies, blue jeans and football

Bonfires and school nights

Scarecrows and hayrides

It's fall everywhere except the mall

I don't want to hear about Santa Claus coming

No silver bells or a dozen drummers drumming

I don't want to see an inflatable nothing

Till the day after Thanksgiving

(And not a day early)

Don't plug in those electric candles

Or dangle those stockings from the living room

Those tangled up lights are more than I can handle

Till the day after Thanksgiving

Then oh let it snow

Go and tell everyone you know

That Christmas is here

Every day between now and new year

Don't deck the halls with the tinsel or the holly

You can make me grumpy but you can't make me jolly

Elves don't even make curly haired dollies

Till the day after Thanksgiving

Then oh let it snow

Christmas card, everyone you know

Then pour on the cheer

Every day between now and new year

I want the cookies and the mistletoe kissing

Angel on top of a tall tree glisten

Wrap it all up in a pretty red ribbon

The day after Thanksgiving

(You can put antlers on your car for all I care)

As long as its the day after Thanksgiving
