Bobs - The Night Before the Night Before Christmas Lyrics

It's the night before the night before Christmas
old friends together the same time every year
she's leaving him, but he doesn't know it
to everyone else it's perfectly clear

Their holiday party has secrets in the air
something that he doesn't share
she's found another
she's movin' on
the day after New Years she'll be gone

The guests are uneasy they don't know how to act
should they tell him or keep it hushed?
take a drink and a snack
talking behind his back
soon everyone's getting lushed

It's the night before the night before Christmas
old friends together the same time every year
she's leaving him but he doesn't know it
to everyone else it's perfectly clear

She said promise you won't spend a lot on my present
just give me something small
a little reminder is more than enough
it's the thought that counts after all

The gift that she's giving he can't foresee
a gift that begins with a _D_
When he gets the papers
Things will look grim
Why ruin Christmas for him?

It's the night before the night before Christmas
One year later together as friends
they moved apart but the party's still going
a holiday spirit that never will end
