Brandy & Eggnog
Drinking alone at Christmas
Listening to James Brown witness
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
In Phoenix the convenience stores are that much more convenient
They're like liquor stores with motor oil and cheese
He was grinning through a wreath it looked like cocaine on his teeth
From a rack of their seasonal CDs
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
Now James Brown is funky he says as-salamu alaykum
Means peace be unto you
God's mercy and his blessing
On America and the children of the world
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
I remember how I cried when I heard that he had died
A Christmas morn a few years down the road
How my heart was given rest by the pain his voice possessed
It felt just like the ghost of Christmas soul
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
Listening to James Brown witness
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
In Phoenix the convenience stores are that much more convenient
They're like liquor stores with motor oil and cheese
He was grinning through a wreath it looked like cocaine on his teeth
From a rack of their seasonal CDs
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
Now James Brown is funky he says as-salamu alaykum
Means peace be unto you
God's mercy and his blessing
On America and the children of the world
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
I remember how I cried when I heard that he had died
A Christmas morn a few years down the road
How my heart was given rest by the pain his voice possessed
It felt just like the ghost of Christmas soul
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
Oh hell, oh well, all alone, noel
On a lawn chair under a cactus
With my gaze aimed down
As I listen to James Brown
With brandy and eggnog for breakfast
