"Fake Blood For Christmas" (R. Picard / P. Ellison, Unicorn Factory/Hot And Awkward Music, ASCAP)
Got myself some tinsel
I think it really rocks
I just finished shopping for
Cookies, lights and socks
My house smells like fruitcake
It's toasty and its warm
I've some Jell-O setting up
In my tree-shaped Jell-O form
Well I'm shopping for presents, I'm taking a guess
Will it get there in time if I use UPS?
Oh, what am I thinking? I know what to get!
What everybody wants, yeah it's a sure bet, oh
Everybody's getting fake blood for Christmas
Everybody's getting fake blood
You can cross it off of your Christmas wish-list
The present that's never a dud!
Everybody's getting fake blood for Christmas
Everybody's getting fake blood
You can die happy 'cause everybody's getting fake blood
Fake blood!
Got myself some ornaments
And a real live Christmas tree
I just finished baking stuff
Enough for a family or three
All my friends are on their way
We'll have a great party
The mistletoe hung by the door
I hope no one's tardy
Well I'm shopping for presents, I'm taking a guess
Will it get there in time if I use UPS?
Oh, what am I thinking? I know what to get!
What everybody wants, yeah it's a sure bet, oh
Everybody's getting fake blood for Christmas
Everybody's getting fake blood
You can cross it off of your Christmas wish-list
The present that's never a dud!
Everybody's getting fake blood for Christmas
Everybody's getting fake blood
You can die happy 'cause everybody's getting fake blood
Fake blood!
