It's Coming Down (Like a Motherfucker)

from The Night Before Christmas Was Invented by Ah, Venice

/

about

A Christmas song based around a scratched record. Explicit language.

lyrics

I beat the lines, you walk right through
the bullshit I keep telling you
and I do not want to wait again
so I bear my teeth and walk right in.

You try to read between the lines
but it's hard to read by christmas lights
I drink the rain and it's alright
so let's hunker down and say goodnight.

And when it's comin' down like a motherfucker
then I know what to do
I'm staying right here next to you.

We can stay home all december
we can be snowed in
we can keep warm on each other
we can watch Die Hard again

I'll show you how to beat the lines
& keep you warm, I promise
we're right on time, no need to rush
we can stay home for christmas


And when it's comin' down like a motherfucker
then I know what to do
And when it's comin' down like a motherfucker
then I know what to do
I'm staying right here next to you.

...you never knew that I was good at desolation, oh
the time right I think for asking you a question, oh
'cause you and I we got a holiday conception, oh
but maybe that's not what is actually important

so hole up, hunker down
brace and against and say goodnight,
try our best to read by the light of christmas lights
I know that I can't go back
but I feel that I can do better
or maybe do it again
wanna give you something to believe in

so get your warm gloves
I guess I gave mine away
don't remember to whom,
actually it might've been you.
