Sufjan Stevens - Lumberjack Christmas / No One Can Save You From Christmases Past Lyrics

One, two, three, four

Oh no, the rugged soul
The great back yard and the cold North Pole
I resent that Santa went and left us in the Alamo

Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?
(Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?)
Would you like to wrap the gifts and have a drink?
(Would you like to wrap the gifts and)

The only one condition, I've got the premonition (I've only one)
That Christmas is a vision, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
If drinking makes it easy (so have one here)
The music's kind of cheesy (and sing our cheer)
The specials on the TV (the specials)
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Dreams go and stay below
The cattle call and the old dark soul
I respect that Santa left
To save his kids from the winter cold

Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?
(Would you like to stay a while and dance with me?)
Mistletoe and chestnuts roasting on the street
(Mistletoe and chestnuts roasting)

The only one condition, I've got the premonition (I've only one)
That Christmas is a vision, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
If drinking makes it easy (so have one here)
The music's kind of cheesy (and sing our cheer)
The specials on the TV (the specials)
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

No one save you from Christmases past
You'll have to love it, or leave it at last
No one can save you from Christmases past (no one can save you, no one can save you)
You'll have to love it, or leave it at last
No one can save you from Christmases past (no one can save you, no one can save you)
You'll have to love it, or leave it at last
No one can save you from Christmases past (no one can save you, no one can save you)
You'll have to love it, or leave it at last
No one can save you from Christmases (no one can save you, no one can save you from Christmas)
