The Christmas Tree song
Well I climbed up in the attic
And I took down the tree
The thought just struck me
Why it's just always me
Well I put it altogether
And it looked just fine
So I stepped back and then I saw the time
Chorus
So I went into the kitchen and had myself a beer
I raised my glass to friends who are not here
I wish you all a jolly good time
And hope your Christmas will be just fine
=
Now I put on the baubles and the fairy queen
All the little elves and the in-betweens
I Put on the glitter and it looked just fine
So I looked at the clock and it was nearly nine.
Chorus
So then I opened up the box of lights
300 of them they were all coloured and bright
But they were in a jumble and knots you see
So I threw them down and cursed them you see
Chorus
Now I put the lights are back in the box
A thousand curses on them and the pox
I goin' off down to the Christmas draw
And have a beer with Billy McGrath

Outstanding.  Nice rhythm, great strat tone.
I really like the nonsense words between the chorus and verse.
Nice work.

Brilliant! Really enjoyed this, I have lived the lyrics about those damn lights too many times! Excellent Xmas song with some nice cheeky lyrics. Like the little guitar lead licks as well.
