'tis the season

lyrics

three stones for St. Stephen on the edge of town
four roses left out on the shore
five brown feathers i keep in my hair against the
six winds howling at my door
it's Christmas, it's Christmas they seem to say
though I've heard it all before
my eyes see the world to be
but now it's Christmas, it's Christmas once more

keep your kettles on the stove
your irons in the fire
come with me
we'll be singing carols in a devil's choir
boil me in a pudding
a stake of holly through my heart
serve me up when the feasting starts

red stains the white in perfect time
cold grows the gleam in my eye
the frost will keep the flames at bay
as the wild hunt reels across the sky
like the bow atop your gift
like the year's light almost spent
like the knife held to the bull's throat
I'm a sacrificial instrument

your hand's on the wheel
my feet on the dash
gas in the tank, but I wonder
how long will it last?
we're leaving town tonight
we got our getaway stake
might be back by Christmas Day

it's Christmas, it's Christmas they seem to say
though I've heard it all before
my eyes see the world to be
but now it's Christmas, it's Christmas once more

you forgot the music?
bet you still know the words
you forgot the steps?
i bet your body hasn't heard
take what you like and throw the rest away
it'll all come out on Christmas Day
