Merry Christmas Joey Ramone Merry Christmas Joey Ramone Merry Christmas Cuz you mean so much to me I was thirteen You were on TV Rock and Roll High School Mesmerized me Black leather jackets Breakneck speed Discovered a band that had everything I need My friends said all the songs sound the same I didn’t care cuz my friends were lame Threw away all my Falco tapes Got Rocket to Russia and called it a day 3 or 4 chords and a ton of fun Dee Dee counts out, Marky hits the drums Johnny plays so hard he’s gonna break a bone And Joey sings to me so I never feel alone Where has joey gone away Hope he’s no longer feeling pain Johnny joined him Dee Dee too Tommys on drums in Valhalla too Hope you never have to fight again Just playing rock n roll like when you was kids Marshall amps and Mosrite guitars
Thunder and lightning reigns down from the stars Merry Christmas Joey Ramone Merry Christmas Joey Ramone Merry Christmas Cuz you mean so much to me

Went down to Hapuna get my head cleared out But parking lot was all full up Mustang convertibles with rental car stickers Its a mad house when you’re looking for some fun Drove up Mauna Kea for some fresh air But the road was slow I could see Tacomas and Tundras with their beds full of snow Making snowmen for all their keiki I don’t want another lonely Christmas On the Big Island I don’t wanna spend it on my own I don’t want another lonely Christmas On the Big Island I don’t want to die here all alone Took a jump off a cliff at South Point And a manowar stung me on my knee I asked him if it was jellyfish heaven He said nah man but come follow me I struggled and gasped in that cold cold water couldn’t get my legs free Took me underwater Said if you wanna go to heaven better stay here and pray to me I splashed up to the surface and grabbed a deep breath My arms were tired and sore But I swam and swam through the rip currents Until I got back to shore Yes I’m lonely and sad but I don’t wanna die Just wanna find someone to share Christmas is only fun when you’ve got someone Someone who really cares I don’t want another lonely Christmas On the Big Island I don’t wanna spend it on my own I don’t want another lonely Christmas On the Big Island I don’t want to die here all alone

Last Christmas was a shit show Everybody stayed home Drinking by the fire Drinking all alone Last Christmas was a crap fest We were all stressed out Thinking bout elections Instead of having fun Last Christmas was a dead duck moldy in a gutter covered in a pile of greasy grimy muck Last Christmas made my heart break Thought I’d be a doornail Thought that would be the end for me This year will be better We can see our friends Except for Matt and Shannon Cuz they moved to Oregon A hui hou is how you say I’ll see you again A hui hou Aloha to my friends Planning a big party Gonna invite everyone But Max and Mel and Shane and Stacy moved to wherever the hell Noa went to Portugal And brought his ladies too I guess this year its just me and you I guess this year its just me and you I guess this year its just me and you Christmas wreaths And candy canes And presents under the tree Just the way I like it you and me

We've been at war with christmas since 96 A few battles won but it was looking pretty grim Old Man O'Reilly had us down for the count Then he pulled out his loofa and sponged it out Captain Hannity renewed the fight Takes a good good soldier to battle through the night But he didn't count on our secret weapon A super dumb president who would do our bidding, oh yeah We finally won the War on Christmas Now everyone is down with the sickness Nobody's sittin on Santa's lap That mistletoe's a coronavirus trap We finally won the War on Christmas Now everyone is down with the sickness Nobody's sittin on Santa's lap That mistletoe's a coronavirus trap Agent Melania was the first to give way Did you see what she did to the white house display Her dystopian vision for Trumpian Christmas Was the first signal that the cracks were getting vicious Antifa forces then took to the streets Deploying fake ballots and a horrible disease Til everyone voted an everyone was sick And Christmas got cancelled it hurt like a brick oh yeah We finally won the War on Christmas Now everyone is down with the sickness Nobody's sittin on Santa's lap That mistletoe's a coronavirus trap We finally won the War on Christmas Now everyone is down with the sickness Nobody's sittin on Santa's lap That mistletoe's a coronavirus trap

There's a riot at the store Deals on waffle irons galore But planned demand outwins supplies People descend like a pack of lions Bones are broken and faces punched Was the bargain worth this much There goes the Christmas cheer, good will towards man seems insincere Turn into a christian caliphate Angry Extremists take the bait Confirmation blinds the eyes Binds the mind besides the lies Forget the the meaning of the man “OMG that’s not what I said” - Jesus There goes the Christmas cheer, good will towards man seems insincere We’re being played six ways around From left and right and up and down Instead of fighting corporate greed We’re fighting each other on our Facebook feed Christmas tables flipped in fear Grandmas house is full of tears There goes the Christmas cheer, good will towards man seems insincere

Can’t buy you any gifts this year Cuz there’s no gifts in the shop And I don’t got no money anyway I spent it all getting drunk Bought a case of beer last Wednesday Thursday it was gone So I bought another Friday And now my bank is overdrawn Merry Christmas motherfuckers Merry Christmas to all of you Merry Christmas motherfuckers Don’t tell me what to do Maybe I should stop drinking Maybe I should get a job Maybe then my mom would stop saying That’ I’m a fucking slob The holidays are upon us Its a time for joy and cheer But I just wanna hide in my room And drink 100 beers
