The season's upon us, it's that time of year

C          F               G         C
Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer

        C             F                 G          
There's lights on the trees and there's wreaths to be 
C
hung

        C            F          G           C
There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung


        C                 F          G        C
There's bells and there's holly, the kids are gung-ho

     C            F            G           C
True Love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe

     C            F                          C
Some families are messed up while others are fine

       F                    G                      C
If you think yours is crazy... well you should see mine

   C            F           G          C
My sister's are wackjobs, I wish I had none

      C            F          G            C
Their husbands are losers and so are their sons

   C          F        G           C
My nephew's a horrible wise little twit

        C         F                 G           C
He once gave me a nice gift wrapped box full of shit

   C             F             G       C
He likes to pelt carolers with icy snowballs

            C            F             G             
I'd like to take him out back and deck more than the 
C
halls

     C           F            G       C  
With family like this I would have to confess

       C          F          G              C
I'd be better off lonely, distraught, and depressed

My mom likes to cook, push our buttons, and prod

My brother just brought home another big broad

    C          F             G             C
The eye rollin whispers come loud from the kitchen

    C              F               G         C
I'd come home more often if they'd only quit bitchin


C          F              G           C
Dad on the other hand's a selfish old sod

       C       F             G         C
Drinks whiskey alone with my miserable dog

    C            F             G             C
Who won't run or fetch sure he couldn't care less

   C          F              G           C
He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess
