Being with friends and family on turkey day,
Having dinner with a family full of turkeys
For Yule time sport and play,
Needing extra strength Tylenol for all...
The family arguments y'all,
Writing checks with more bounce
Than a truck full of basketballs,
Beer and booze shop'n
Last minute reefer, lottery and hot ticket item cop'n,
Oh, what a wonderFool time of the year,
Frantic last minute shopping panic,
Gift giving ain't funny
When you got no money.
Only a few more days to go, so...
Got to do what I got to do to get that dough.
I don't have to stand in any checkout line
If I commit a crime.
I just gotta get some gifts before I run out of time,
Gift giving madness turning me to a life of crime,
Got to get what I don't have money to buy,
Don't want loved ones to feel left out,
Money is love, don't want them to doubt,
Showing my love with gifts I can't afford
Buying is what this time of years is all about,
I have to take from others so my kids won't believe
The lies told by their overweight hairy mindless Mama,
Uh-ohhhh...
This is the beginning of my seasonal crime spree saga,
Just being honest, just being for real,
Best time of the year to steal,
Robbing shoppers who just got a hell of a good deal,
Oh, what a wonderFool time of the year,
Time of merriment, warmth, joy and bounty,
Another perpetrator getting busted, can't make bail...
Fool is spending the yule... doing a bit in County Jail,
Oh, what a wonderFool time of the year.
