My Debt Swells (Jingle Bells)

by Boogienights

Christmas time is here,
my old car's broken down.
I can't get to work,
let alone, to town.

Transmission is shot,
I'm not feeling bright.
There's no fun in store for me,
I can't believe my plight.


Oh, 
cell phone rings, 
cell phone rings,
creditor on the line.
Can't believe I spent this much,
I budgeted this time!

Cell phone rings, 
cell phone rings,
I am deep in debt.
All for gifts on lay-a-way,
that aren't paid off just yet.


Next year I'll be smart,
and know just what to do.
Get a better paying job,
gamble lots less too.
That, or rob a bank,
much easier it seems.
It's risky but I'd have to say,
it would fulfill my dreams.


Oh, 
cell phone rings, 
cell phone rings,
creditor on the line.
Can't believe I spent this much,
I budgeted this time!

Cell phone rings, 
cell phone rings,
I am deep in debt.
All for gifts on lay-a-way,
that....aren't....paid....off....just....yet!
