about

Christmas is a state of mind...

-------------------------------------

lyrics

So this is Christmas, Redondo Beach, LA
So this is Christmas, no snow falling today
The temp is ninety-two and the sky is clear and bright
But as long as we're together
We'll have a happy Christmas time tonight

So this is Christmas, Manhattan Beach, LA
So this is Christmas and he won't be on his sleigh
But have no fear, the kids will hear
While dreaming in their beds
Santa pulling trailers in his Hummer painted red

There's mistletoe and silver bells
and Jingle bells and ho-ho-ho
And Rudolph? Well, he's riding shotgun...

The temp is ninety-two
And the sky is clear and bright
But as long as we're together
We'll have a happy Christmas time tonight

No snowball fights, no corn-cob pipes
No icicles to break
No egg-nog toasts, no chestnut roasts
No frozen ponds to skate
But there's trees to trim and lights to hang
And lots of love to make...

So don't worry none cuz we're having fun
It's still Christmas in the Sunshine State

So this is Christmas, Hermosa Beach, LA
So this is Christmas, no sleigh rides today
But the surf is up and the beer is cold
And the sunset's quite a sight

And as long as we're together
We'll have a merry Christmas time tonight
