Holiday Dream
by Conrad Hubbard

Holiday paraphernalia
dreams people try to sell ya
Well you can wake me when its over
round the time of green beer and clover
Happy Halloween and
she took her mask off
I don't wanna be your wife
was my trick or treat castoff
she dropped that white dress
costume and fled the scene
oh yeah, did I say
Happy Halloween
Happy Thanksgiving
feels like half a family
I got no appetite
on this sinner's saint day of gluttony
she drops by with papers
all set for me to sign
I'm drinking everything 
from whiskey to wine
I may have been trashed
but I hadn't dropped the ring
oh yeah did I say
Happy Thanksgiving
Merry Christmas
I didn't even put up a tree
and the only thing I was thinking
of hanging round here was me
when I step under the mistletoe
all I've got is a bottle
so I turn it up
and drink its kiss full throttle
my soul still rests with her that day
and I wonder who will notice
oh yeah did I say
Merry Christmas
Happy New Year
and my resolution is just to survive
well here it is almost end of the year
and I am still alive
but I've started the Holiday dream 
again and i can't help but shed a tear
got all this holiday paraphernalia
and I'm alone with all its cheer
well me and my 
whiskey and beer
oh yeah did I say
Happy New Year.
