The Season's Upon Us Lyrics - Signed And Sealed In Blood - Dropkick Murphys

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

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer 

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

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung 

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

True love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe 

Some families are messed up while others are fine 

If you think yours is crazy, well you should see mine 

My sisters are wack jobs, I wish I had none 

Their husbands are losers and so are their sons 

My nephew's a horrible wise little twit 

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

He likes to pelt carolers with icy snowballs 

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

With family like this I would have to confess 

I'd be better off lonely, distraught and depressed 

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

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer 

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

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung 

They call this Christmas where I'm from 

My mom likes to cook, push our buttons and prod 

My brother just brought home another big broad 

The eyes rollin' whispers come love from the kitchen 

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

Dad on the other hand's a selfish old sod 

Drinks whiskey alone with my miserable dog 

Who won't run off fetch sure he couldn't care less 

He defiled my teddy bear and left me the mess 

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

Brandy and eggnog, there's plenty of cheer 

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

There's mischief and mayhem and songs to be sung 

They call this Christmas where I'm from 

The table's set, we raise a toast 

The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost 

I'm so glad this day only comes once a year 

You can keep your opinions, your presents, your 'Happy New Year' 

They call this Christmas where I'm from 

They call this Christmas where I'm from
