It’s Not Christmas Till Somebody Cries

[Intro]
It's not Christmas, no-oh-oh
It's not Christmas, no-oh-oh
It's not Christmas till somebody cries
(Ho, ho-ho, ho-ho-ho)

[Verse 1]
Everybody made it home for Christmas Eve
Tried to keep it cool around the Christmas tree
But every year we sing a little song to survive, that
It's not Christmas till somebody cries
My boyfriend is a vegan, so they fed him fish
My uncle made it worse by talking politics
I had a few opinions, might have started a fight, well
It's not Christmas till somebody cries

[Chorus]
It's not Christmas
Till we all break down in tears
It's not Christmas (No-oh-oh)
It's the best time of the year

[Verse 2]
Grandpa ate the gummies that we meant to hide
We tried to play it off like it's a holiday high
He unwrapped all the presents and he ruined the surprise, well
It's not Christmas till somebody–
Breaks into an argument, ooh, I used to fight it (Oh, oh, oh)
We get emotional too, I won't deny it (Oh, oh, oh)
I used to hide in my room, but now I like it
'Cause it's not Christmas till somebody cries

[Chorus]
It's not Christmas (No-oh-oh)
Till we all break down in tears
It's not Christmas (No-oh-oh)
It's the best time of the year

[Post-Chorus]
It's not Christmas
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
Till somebody cries
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
Till somebody cries

[Bridge]
Waking up too early in my childhood bed
The nieces and the nephews jumping on my head
They keep on asking questions like, "Is Santa a lie?", well
It's not Christmas till somebody cries

[Outro]
It's not Christmas, no-oh-oh
It's not Christmas, no-oh-oh (Have a holly jolly)
The secret is to sing a little song to survive, that
It's not Christmas till somebody cries (Till somebody cries)
No, it's not Christmas till somebody cries (No, it's not Christmas)
It's not Christmas till somebody cries
(Ho, ho-ho, ho-ho)
