Living on Christmas Time
©2012 Bennett John Neuhauser. All rights reserved. Bennett John Neuhauser is a.k.a. Ben Sage and Ben Sundae

I see people dashing round
Losing their heads all over town
That’s their neighbor they’re trying to beat
To the next store down the street

But me I’m moving slow
No particular place to go
I’m as busy as I care to be
Trimming up my little fir tree

By the fire / I sit and bask
Got no worries / Why? You ask
Here’s my secret: / I’m living’ on Christmas Time

Christmastime / That’s what I said
It’s a time zone / In your head
You can go there / With a smile
If this recipe / You’ll try, well…

A little egg nog / And a little mulled wine
Just a little sip of the/ Fruit of the vine
And before you know it / You’re living on Christmas Time

The only presents / You will need
Are the hugs / You will receive
From you r friends / And family, too
Who stopped by / To share the Yule
When voices join / In carols fine
And you’re all singing / So divine
Then you know you’re living on Christmas Time

That’s the secret / And truth be told
It ‘s so simple / It never grows old
So don’t be grumpy / Don’t be a Grinch
Just show ‘em love / And it’s a cinch
Pretty soon / You will find
Bells are ringing in your mind
And then you know you’re living on Christmas …
Forget the clock – start living on Christmas …
C’mon everybody, we’re living on Christmas Time!
I said… there’s just nothing better than living on Christmas Time
