Christmas In The Suburbs

(album: Christmas In The Suburbs - 2021)

Augustus, Emperor of Rome, wanted to know how many people were in his empire
He also wanted to know if they're paying their taxes

It's wonderful in the summer
It's fabulous in the fall
It's tender in the winter
For one and all
Though you said your prayer
And though I said mine too
A little bit of heartache
It sometimes passes through

It's Christmas is the suburbs
In the world all turning round
Don't worry 'bout the presents
You're my prized possession now

It's magical out in Cairo
It's splendid in the Andes
True love in the tundra
Warms me up, a bit of brandy
It's magical in the [?]
Hilarious in the [?]
Beautiful in the bayou
I'll buy you all a
Little bit of happiness
Just a touch of cheer
Sickness, fear, and [?]
Can't live here

Christmas is the suburbs
In the world all turning round
Don't worry 'bout the presents
You're my prized possession now

It's Christmas in the future
Oh, the world is shaking hands
Be so nice to break the ice
And I believe we can
It'd be so nice to break the ice
And I believe we can
It'd be so nice to break the ice
And I believe we can

One day when Mary was alone a bright light filled the room
She looked up and saw an angel
