Boyfriend for Xmas
How'd you think this was gonna go
Everybody and their daddy knows
Well I flew home in the dead of night
And something didn't sit right
I fell in love with a teacher's son
Guess I wasn't the only one
He got drunk and he just forgot
A town like this is gonna talk
So I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
I cannot, cannot say I'm gonna miss him
Called you crying and you told me that you'd been with him
So to you, my best friend - I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
Not anything like I've been through before
Saw your cars at the liquor store
My friends tried to warn me but I didn't know
Innuendo and metaphor
But it's hot pink screaming in my face it's yelling
I see through every lie you're telling
I hope it lasts you til the summertime
Worth everything that you left behind
I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
I'm better off, better off alone than with him
As for all the signs and red flags, I must have missed em
So I'm giving you my boyfriend, my boyfriend for Christmas
I heard you up and tumbled
I heard you really see each other
I heard what everybody said
I heard what everybody said
You finish each other's sentences
I heard you're happy now and that's for the best
Well I heard what the others said
You spent nights in each others bed
I heard what the others said
You were the better one for him
I heard what everybody said
And it's running running round inside my head
I heard what the others said
What the others said
I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
I cannot say there is no way that I'm gonna miss him
So it goes, and all I know is I forgive him, and you
My best friend, enjoy him, I'm giving you
My boyfriend for Christmas
For Christmas
Everybody and their daddy knows
Well I flew home in the dead of night
And something didn't sit right
I fell in love with a teacher's son
Guess I wasn't the only one
He got drunk and he just forgot
A town like this is gonna talk
So I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
I cannot, cannot say I'm gonna miss him
Called you crying and you told me that you'd been with him
So to you, my best friend - I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
Not anything like I've been through before
Saw your cars at the liquor store
My friends tried to warn me but I didn't know
Innuendo and metaphor
But it's hot pink screaming in my face it's yelling
I see through every lie you're telling
I hope it lasts you til the summertime
Worth everything that you left behind
I'm giving you my boyfriend for Christmas
I'm better off, better off alone than with him
As for all the signs and red flags, I must have missed em
So I'm giving you my boyfriend, my boyfriend for Christmas
I heard you up and tumbled
I heard you really see each other
I heard what everybody said
I heard what everybody said
You finish each other's sentences
I heard you're happy now and that's for the best
Well I heard what the others said

So it goes, and all I know is I forgive him, and you
My best friend, enjoy him, I'm giving you
My boyfriend for Christmas
For Christmas
