Footprints in the snow We're drunk and singing carols walking home Arm in arm with noses numb from cold Houses shining bright They're dressed from head to toe in coloured lights To chase away the darkest night Whether it's spent with family or friends Or getting drunk alone again Lunch at home or down the pub Takeaway or homemade grub Everybody spread some cheer My favourite time of year is here I hope that you get everything on your list I'm wishing you the merriest christmas Wherever you are Beneath the moon and stars We're making snowballs with snow from roofs of cars Throwing them at people leaving bars We run as they give chase The wind like little daggers in my face Slipping and sliding all over the place Whether it's spent with family or friends Or getting drunk alone again Lunch at home or down the pub Takeaway or homemade grub Everybody spread some cheer My favourite time of year is here I hope that you get everything on your list I'm wishing you the merriest christmas Wherever you are I hope that you get everything on your list I'm wishing you the merriest christmas Wherever you are I hope that you get everything on your list I'm wishing you the merriest christmas Wherever you are
