I hope you're picking out your presents
I hope you're putting up your tree
I hope the carolers are at your door
and there's rudolph on tv.
I hope you've got your eggnog ready
You've got your cheesiest sweater on
I hope the mistletoe's above the door
And all the stockings hung.
Merry Christmas from the Cheatham County prison
Looks like your wish came true this year
Merry Christmas from the hell that I've been living in
You better pray I don't get out of here.
So when you're picking out your presents
So when you're putting up your tree
I hope you cherish every moment
And every memory.
Because I won't be in here forever
And I've got my own Christmas list
If I get my way next year
Then your song goes like this.
Merry Christmas from the Cheatham County graveyard
Looks like you finally got your wish
Merry Christmas from the great beyond.

I Still Believe

In the lunch line while I was getting my plate
I overheard the most terrible statement
Some older kid calling Santa Claus fake
But what does he know, he's only eight.
Right?
But I could not help think about it that night
How that older boy couldn't be justified
I mean, who else brings presents while we're sleeping tight
None other than Santa Claus,
Right?
I still want to believe
I still want to believe
No other children will take this from me
I still want to believe.
So i asked my mother the following day
And I never would have expected she'd say
That that silly boy was right in some ways
But the spirit of Saint Nick lives on to this day.
Lies.
I still want to believe
I still want to believe
No children or parents will take this from me
I still want to believe.
I stille make him cookies, three different kinds
I still hang my stocking, I still string the lights
My college roommate says that she doesn't mind
No really, she says, she likes Christmas, its fine.
I still want to believe
I still want to believe
No other people will take this from me
I still want to believe.
