House of Broken Gingerbread
Two mountains of presents, two glittering trees,
Both frosted in tinsel and blue LEDs
Two platters of cookies and peppermint bark,
Two baby messiahs aglow in the dark
Two decks of Uno and two sets of Clue,
There's double the Christmas but I'm torn in two
In the house of broken gingerbread
Butterscotch and candy cigarettes
Sugar snow on the flowerbed
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
And there they go sledding, here there's a pool
The boyfriend's a dentist, the stepmom is cool
Dad gave me a brother, mom promised a dog
And one of those French cakes disguised as a log
Two-hearted Christmas, half-hearted day
St. Nick and the wise men got lost on the way
To the house of broken gingerbread
Butterscotch and candy cigarettes
Sugar snow on the flowerbed
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
Mistletoe is hanging by a thread
And the misfit toys just shake their heads
Stockings hung up and full of dread
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
Both frosted in tinsel and blue LEDs
Two platters of cookies and peppermint bark,
Two baby messiahs aglow in the dark
Two decks of Uno and two sets of Clue,
There's double the Christmas but I'm torn in two
In the house of broken gingerbread
Butterscotch and candy cigarettes
Sugar snow on the flowerbed
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
And there they go sledding, here there's a pool
The boyfriend's a dentist, the stepmom is cool
Dad gave me a brother, mom promised a dog
And one of those French cakes disguised as a log
Two-hearted Christmas, half-hearted day
St. Nick and the wise men got lost on the way
To the house of broken gingerbread
Butterscotch and candy cigarettes
Sugar snow on the flowerbed
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
Mistletoe is hanging by a thread
And the misfit toys just shake their heads
Stockings hung up and full of dread
At the house of (house of) broken gingerbread
