Hot Hot Heat - Christmas Day In The Sun Lyrics

December, dozen of palm trees
Give up those car keys
And walk to the new year
Ignore these mischievous motives
My balance and focus get blurry when you're near

But I want my Christmas day in the sun
All I want this year is California
It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun
I need a better way to spend the new year
As long as you're around, yeah

Rain drops are painted on rooftops
Locals, they don't stop
I know where it's headed
I'm not cut out for these parties
I know where my heart is
I try and forget it

So I want my Christmas day in the sun
All I want this year is California
It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun
I need a better way to spend the new year
As long as you're around

Their faces always go away
When we were young I heard you say
It's yours to lose, it's yours to lose

Don't say I'll wait
You don't have to remember
I'm out of excuses
I hear the echoes of us in the station
They're pointing and laughing

Reminding me
I want my Christmas day in the sun
All I want this year is California
It's not too much to ask for Christmas day in the sun
I need a better way to spend the new year
As long as you're around year
