This festive tune encapsulates the unique circumstances of celebrating Christmas during a global pandemic. The artists cleverly utilize humor and contemporary references, such as Zoom calls and mask-wearing, to portray the shared experiences of many during this period. The song underscores the importance of public health measures like getting a booster shot while also expressing longing for physical connection and normalcy. It highlights the paradox of isolation amidst a traditionally communal time. However, it ends on an optimistic note, suggesting that these measures will eventually lead to safer celebrations in the future. Thus, this piece is not just a holiday song but also a cultural artifact reflecting our current reality.
It Was A… (Masked Christmas)
Lyrics
What's up, y'all?
It's Megan Thee Stallion
Ariana Grande and Jimmy Fallon
Y'all know what time it is
It's time to get those boosters
Ah
It was a masked Christmas, we stayed in the house
We covered our nose and covered our mouth
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
(For a booster)
It was a masked Christmas
We hopped on a Zoom (hopped on a Zoom)
I can only get WiFi in the laundry room (laundry room)
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
I need somebody to hold tonight
'Cause it's gonna snow ('cause it's gonna snow)
I need somebody to hold me tight
And never let go (never let go)
So say that you're coming home
You know it's Christmas Eve
Last year I was here alone
Don't tell me this year's the same, the same (say it's not the same)
It was a masked Christmas, we stayed in the house (we stayed in the house)
We covered our nose and covered our mouth (and covered our mouth)
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
(For a booster)
It was a masked Christmas
We hopped on a Zoom (hopped on a Zoom)
I can only get WiFi in the laundry room (laundry room)
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
(For a booster) ay, ay, ay
This Christmas I'ma make it count (make it count)
No more quarantine on the couch (yeah)
This year hang that mistletoe (mistletoe)
I'ma kiss everybody that I know (muah)
This year's different, you can tell (you can tell)
Deck those halls and jingle bells (ah)
Put Purell on everything (what?)
Turkey, eggnog, candy cane (ooh)
Hey ho
There's a good chance of snow (yeah)
Hey ho (ah)
Somebody wipe Rudolph's nose
Ho hey
I promise we'll be okay
'Cause now we're in line for a booster (ay, ay, ah)
It was a masked Christmas, we stayed in the house (we stayed in the house)
We covered our nose and covered our mouth (and covered our mouth)
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
(For a booster) yeah, hey
It was a masked Christmas
We hopped on a Zoom (hopped on a Zoom)
I can only get WiFi in the laundry room (laundry room)
But it's Christmas time
We'll be in line for a booster (yeah, uh)
(For a booster)
