These Are the Things I Have No Frickin’ Time For
Raindrops on roses are useless at Christmas
When you have kids it’s a serious business
Buying the right toys is my only chore
Everything else I don’t have frickin’ time for
Beautiful presents in artisan papers
Bold centerpieces with elegant tapers
Handcrafted pine wreaths to hang on my door,
Cause those are the things I will have fricken’ time for?
We won’t send portraits of us looking happy
Or cheerful notecards where I’m warm and sappy
Pictures with Santa result in a war
These are more things I have no frickin’ time for
Our tree is plastic, we don’t own a manger
My famous fruitcake is made by a stranger
You’ll all get giftcards from some random store
Anything else I have no frickin time for
As my kid yaks in a giftsack
That was for his dad
I simply remember life sucks in December and then I don’t feel so bad!
