The waves are big and the water is warm And two days from Monday it'll be a new year Who would have thought You hold the glass And I'll poor I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle The wind is fierce And the sea is tall And the sun is sinking low into the ocean gold It's beautiful don't let the kids play by the broken wall And I'm sill waiting for my Christmas miracle But you know I'm still driving Passed Albert park Down to Phillip Island I play diamonds On my windshield And watch the steam rise In the rain fall I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle The sound of the silver on porcelain Mixes with the laughter and the chatter And the talk talk talk And the last race call I raise my glass to your new store I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle The smell from the kitchen my stomach rumbles My glass is smudged The beer in the jug has gone warm Is that the time? Oh lord I guess I just got caught waiting for my Christmas miracle Remember when we raced Down to the warf You can still see the marks Where we let the engines roar You know I'd still beat you Any day at all Still put my pedal Right to the floor But I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle The lights come on and the music stalls How did those chairs get on the table? My shirt get so worn? You look better than you ever did before I'm still waiting on my Christmas miracle And next year I'll come to your's I'll show up at your house right at your front door Take you for a ride In my new sports car And I'll be laughing out loud just like Old Santa Claus We'll go faster than we've ever done before Just like we've lifted off, started to soar I won't be waiting anymore Im not waiting for my Christmas miracle

Silent Night 02:34
Silent night holy night All is calm all is bright we're not Virgins we've been round a while And that Christian God is just not our style But when I'm here with you and you're here with me We sleep in heavenly peace Silent night wholly night On night like this how could anyone fight We've got the plastic tree up and we've turned on the lights And some of them a flashing and others are not I guess that's why you get when you buy cheap But we've got our own electricity Oh silent night You're sanctified Oh silent night Your sky is wide And those stars up there above They don't belong to anyone Don't belong to anything Any man or religion Those stars on high are for a silent night Silent night holy night It's been a log long year And we're tired tired tired So let's put the tv in a watch the celebrities say If you could only see yourselves the way that I can see you You'd know you're beautiful you're beautiful indeed If you listen closely you can hear those angels breath

Jingle Bells 03:51
10 years ago today My grandma passed away People said that it was fitting That it was on Chrismtas day She was a religious Woman to the end And they said where she was going She was going with a friend Jingle bells jingle all the way I don't know what it's like to ride on a one horse open sleigh I don't know what the words they mean but I sing them anyway On the 25th of December The extended family They would get together in honour of her memory But as the years went by they married and had kids They all had their own families to be with at Christmas They would sing jingle bells And frank he had a shop And the kids they all helped Out And they couldn't come on Chrismtas day cause that's when they were busiest So they said let's move it a week forward Just like it was before and who wants to drive on Christmas 4 hours maybe more They said we can sing jingle bells Now it is agreed To meet the 18th of December But when I think about my grandma I still remember How her mouth it was so dry And I swabbed in the night I was so grateful to be there Just to say goodbye And I sang to her jingle bells And everybody sings jingle bells We sing those Christmas melodies while the memories fade away We don't know what the words they means but we sing them anyway

White Christmas Blue Christmas Anyway you colour Christmas its yours Pour yourself a tall one Make mine a small one Anyway it's your pour Christmas this year I hear those church bells ringing but tonight I don't feel like singing If I could just get myself dressed tonight White Christmas Blue Christmas Anyway you colour Christmas is yours I made it down by midnight But my doors were locked up too tight A turned and that's when I saw the way Loosen up on that glass Get up off your arse Life's gonna get a little bit better everyday White Christmas Blue Christmas Anyway you do Christmas is yours There's something about that baby He says he's here to save me There's something about that baby is you White Christmas blue Christmas anyway you do Christmas is real

I'm dreaming of white Christmas Just like the ones on the tv Where all you need for miracles Is to truly believe I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Where all this hot food would make sense There'd be no more sweating And no more regretting And I'd sleep through the night Dreaming of white

about

Christmas cops a dose of down to earth from PJH. Secular carols, okka ballads, manipulations on a theme.
