Double time and a half
Well that’s a lot of pay
But sorry boss, it’s not enough
To work on Christmas Day
I know we need hotels
As much as we need jingle bells
But roster someone else on
I don’t think a hotel’s an
Appropriate Christmas stay
I know we need fast food
For people who spatially intrude
But please Mr Ronald
Don’t let your McDonalds
Take my Christmas away
Two hundo fifty percent
Of my standard pay
But you wont a-get me to consent
To working on a-Christmas Day
I know we need service stations
To reach our destinations
But hours behind a counter
Will never quite amount to
Sufficient Christmas pay
You know you need your family
No matter how insane they might be
So go enjoy that rowdy mob
Quit your useless job
So you couldn’t—even if you somehow wanted to—work on Christmas Day
