There's still
plenty of leaves
Golden on
the trees
Hoodies blue jeans
and football
Bonfires and
school nights
Scarecrows
and hayrides
It's fall
everywhere except
the mall
I don't want
to hear about
Santa Claus coming
No silver bells
or a dozen
drummers drumming
I don't want
to see an
inflatable nothing
Till the day after
Thanksgiving
Don't plug
in those
electric candles
Or dangle those
stockings from
the living
room medle
Those tangled
up lights are
more than
I can handle
Till the day after
Thanksgiving
Then oh
let it snow
Go and tell
everyone you know
That Christmas
is here
Every day between
now and new year
Don't deck
the halls with
the tinsel or
the holly
You can make me
grumpy but
you can't
make me jolly
Elves don't
even make curly
haired dollies
Till the day after
Thanksgiving
Then oh
let it snow
Christmas card
everyone
you know
Then pour
on the cheer
Every day between
now and new year
I want the
cookies and the
mistletoe kissing
Angel on top of
a tall tree glisten
Wrap it all up
in a pretty
red ribbon
The day after
Thanksgiving
As long as
it's the day after
Thanksgiving
