lyrics

Today, I woke to footsteps on my roof.
It was probably some animal and I am not amused.
In my half-wakened state I thought, "Wouldn't it be funny if St. Nick came a whole month early?"
What would we even do? Change our dates and our parade routes?
But only madness would ensue. Only madness would ensue.

'Cause today is a holiday of capitalistic tendencies.
And corporate America's got a hard-on for money
(Money, money, money)
Merry Christmas, enjoy your shopping.
Enjoy your killer deals
and picking fights with soccer moms in the discount rack.
Oh, I don't mean to go off track.
But I think I'll stay home today.

A train whistle in the distance.
I wonder where it comes from
but I think Bloomfield
(It would only make sense)
I like trains. I take them twice a week
to Midtown Manhattan in attempts to move on from my past life
from the student shell I was -
Now it's time to be a person
(And I've never felt so ready)
I am diving in headfirst.
I'm diving in.
