The Greatest Gift Lyrics - Bret Mckenzie

Another year over. 

Where do they go to? 

It's a mystery. 

Now it's December. 

So much to remember 

Before Christmas Eve. 

I'm already late, 

And my train is delayed, 

Disruption on the line. 

I race into work, 

And the place is berserk, 

Yes, it's Christmas time. 

I wanna find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

But right now, 

I don't have time to breathe. 

The streets are chaotic, 

The shops idiotic, 

There's a queue for the queue. 

A granny's takin' her time, 

At the front of the line.. 

(Granny speaks: 91.. 92..) 

There's a party at work, 

And the manager's twerkin' inappropriately. 

To top off the day, 

Another train is delayed, 

It's a catastrophe. 

(Couple sing: Christmas time is here) 

I'd like to spend the time, 

With the ones I love so dear. 

I'm trying to find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

I don't have time, 

There's only one of me. 

Tell me how do people do it all? 

I'll never get it done. 

If only there was a way to be 

In two places at once. 

(James speaks: Wait, that gives me an idea!) 

If I wasn't alone, 

What if I had a clone? 

I could do so much more. 

It would all be a breeze, 

With a couple more me's 

I'd have time galore. 

I wanna find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

The greatest gift I can give is me. 

Now I can meet with the boss, 

And empty out my inbox, 

All simultaneously. 

Leaving me time to spend 

With my family and friends, 

Where I wanna be. 

I wanna find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

The greatest gift that I can give is me. 

I wanna find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

The greatest gift that I can give is me. 

I wanna find the greatest gift 

I can give my family. 

The greatest gift that I can give, 

The greatest gift the I can give.. 

(Dog tries: The greatest gift the I can give.) 

Is, me!
