I WISH IT COULD BE CHRISTMAS YESTERDAY (Parody)
(To the tune of 'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day' by Roy Wood / Wizzard)


Are you ready parents? (No! No! No!)

When the salesman brings the bill
And the cost makes you feel ill
But you grit your teeth and pay up anyway.
And you trudge home through the rain
Then you trudge right back again
'Cause the pattern's wrong
Or it's just far too long
Or they hate grey.

Well I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
With the presents opened and the mess all cleared away.
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
We could do without this Christmas.

Auntie Ethel's in a mood
Cause little Wayne is throwing food
And: 'Tracey's vegetarian - you knew that!'
Then to add to all the fun
You find the turkey's overdone
So you're chomping on leather
With a slight taste of feather
In a hat.

Well, I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
With the in-laws banished and the kids out of the way.
Yes, I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
We could do without this Christmas.

Now the kids are near to blows
Over who gets the next go
On the 'Greatest Must-Have Wonder Toy Du Jour!'
But at least you've bought some peace
A few hours of sweet release
But they'll get bored soon enough
Just like they did with all the stuff
You've bought before.

Well, I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
But until it is I'll stay out of the way
Yes, I wish it could be Christmas yesterday
We could do without this Christmas.

Yes I've just had enough of Christmas!
