Less the Merrier - Night Birds

Everyone’s pretending that they’re not a selfish piece of shit

The act only lasts until December the twenty sixth

Then they’ll resort to being backstabbing gutless swine

Jockeying to the front of the department store return line

Peace on earth Goodwill towards man

Will never happen don’t you understand

Feed the homeless for a week or two

But when it’s all over kick 'em back on the street

The Less the merrier

Give me a nice thick barrier

Between me and all their holiday cheer

Same routine year after year

Winter is coming you just don’t want to think about it

The days are getting shorter, darker, and colder that’s about it

Congratulate each other on what a great year it’s been

With a month of hedonistic pleasures and sin

Look what’s under the Christmas tree

St. John’s Wort and some pornography

I don’t want to celebrate

Just sit in the dark, tell everyone to fuck off

The Less the merrier

Give me a nice thick barrier

Between me and all their holiday cheer

Same routine year after year
