'Tis the season when I use my mailbox key
I wonder what I'll see
Your handwriting on a dark red envelope
Becomes my greatest hope
At this time I'm aware that I'm not being held in high regard
But would it be so very hard just to send me a Christmas Card?
I will ponder if you just might be compelled
You know how my name's spelled
Something tells me that you will not get writers cramp
So am I worth a stamp?
I am sure that the lights are up flashing all around your yard
So would it be so very hard just send me a Christmas Card?
The last one you sent me had a picture of one sad turtle dove
And you chose to sign it with "best" instead of "love"
Shouldn't this be the time of year that you can let down your guard?
So would it be so very hard just to send me a Christmas Card?
Would it be so very hard just to write me a Christmas Card?
Would it be so very hard just to mail me a Christmas Card?
