Unfortunately, the ONLY youtube I can find of my favorite Christmas song has been modified...to include Dr. Who. Don't get me wrong, I adore Dr. Who, but it doesn't fit with this song. If I could find one with lyrics that'd be even better...but in lieu of youtube, I'll just post the lyrics *evil grin*
Oh, and the song? Twist of the Magi - Rascal Flatts and SheDaisy. I sold your Rolex To buy that gold Versace dress I set free your whiny French poodle So you can get your beauty rest [Chorus:] And I did it all for you I did it all (I did it all) for you This Christmas (This Christmas) All your dreams (all your dreams) Will come true. I put your mother on a Greyhound (You did what?) You'd always hoped she'd have the chance to see the world (leave our mom alone)- now she can I torched your Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues (no, no, no, no) So I could be your only girl - and now I am [Repeat Chorus] [Bridge:] How can I forget All you've done for me, I'll get you yet This is the season to give But I can never forgive the damage that you've done (Damage that you've done) This must be love I sank your bass boat (Not my bass boat, no, no, no) So you'd have more time to spend with me I hocked your grandma's diamond earrings (AAAHHHH!!) For the down payment on an SUV (Fully loaded, heated seats, in hunter green-is this for me?) [Repeat Chorus] Last edited by phenomshel; 11-16-2010 at 02:44 AM. Reason: two l's in lyrics... I've been in the Llounge too llong.... |
