black frames to stare out
maudlin slang to wear out
scoff at squares in sweaters

downloads are the new crack
mocking carols that we hate
damn it's easy being great!

so to hell with holiday romantics
december is for cynics
december is for critics
let's get high on art supplies and hibernate

december is for cynics
december is for critics
let's go buy some take out and hibernate
december is for cynics
damn it's too easy being great!

damn it's too easy being...

so to hell with holiday romantics
december is for cynics
december is for critics
let's get by on nyquil and hibernate
december is for cynics
damn it's too easy being great
