The streets are filled with Christmas cheer At least its only once a year Perfect parcels tied with perfect bows And carols ringing in my ear Bundled up against the cold Lines wherever gifts are sold Each shop window displays a Christmas scene For everybody young and old Icicles on eavesdrops And tinsel on the trees But it's a green Christmas for me Couples skating on the pond Making angels on the lawn Five red mittens drying on the rack And needles shedding tannenbaums Red bows on the railings And snowflakes on the ground But it's a green Christmas in this town Green Cause of everything I miss All this mistletoe no kiss And with every Christmas wish There would be no greater gift Than to have this envy lift Carolers are at my door Don't want to hear them anymore Stockings on the mantle It snows here everyday But it's a green Christmas anyway Red nose on the reindeer And tinsel on the tree But it's a green Christmas for me
