Santa's earnt some time off
He's taking a break
You've got to remember, the month of November
Is still his holiday
So imagine how stressed he gets when
He sees people hanging ornaments a
Full 40 days before Christmas
Pretty stressed, right?
Everyone loves Christmastime
But start too early and get punched in the face
Once you're done with Halloween
Here's something new for you and me
Not quite almost Christmastime
A very special time of year where
Christmas is kind of almost here
It's not Christmas, almost
That starts December first
I'm talking not quite almost Christmastime
The first excited thought about the parties
Still ages away
Watching people lose their mind from hearing
Premature Michael Bublé
Christmastime is wonderful
Keine Traurigkeit und Verfall
But there's a special magic in seeing a tragic
Middle-aged man lose his shit
At a supermarket clerk
For playing Christmas music at work
Before December first
The true meaning of not quite almost Christmas
Gather 'round the not quite almost Christmas tree
Which is just leftover decorations
Not pulled down from Halloween
(La, la, la, la, la, la, la) oh, let's go
Not quite almost Christmastime
When shops and parks are never full
'Cause we're still stuck in work and school
It's not Christmas, almost
That starts December first
I'm talking not quite almost Christmastime
Not quite time to deck the halls
Almost time to give your family a call
Actually, I take that last one back
Any time of the year, you can (call your mother)
Not quite Christmas is sublime
But what about not quite, not quite almost Christmastime?
We love season celebration, amplified by antici-
Gotta have that antici-
'Pation
Not quite almost
Here's your present, I've changed up the chords
Have a merry not quite almost Christmastime
It's the middle of July (I know)
It's not Christmas, almost
That starts December first
I'm talking not quite almost Christmastime
I'm talking not quite almost Christmastime
Not quite almost Christmastime
