lyrics

I know the rules
I know that you should put one before yourself
If only you could rest assured that you’ll get what you want

We’ve always met half way in what is good and what is right
but there’s a grinch in my heart that says it’s all mine

What can I say about cheer and Christmas lights
I’m only human but I try to do what’s right
What can I say? We all know the truth
My christmas list is growing and its growing

Growing out of control, I’m a little out of control

Underneath the bright lights
Underneath the tree
I really do hope
there are lots of presents for me
Christmas is for giving
so please forgive me
But all I really want is lots of gifts made out to me
Santa takes a box out of his bag
I say throw it up on the stack
‘Cause all I really want are gifts with my name upon the tag
