They'll make great Xmas presents for you
In a spiritual way
You'll lay beside me in our family grave
And you don't realize that
Who's better than I ever was?
When you've found a new one
Tell me, will you remember me that day
From the edge of a cloud
Before you're up there with me
Any day around now, honey
Please give all my things away
To see another man in my bed
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Though my face don't show
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
And for all my friends
Tell me, will you remember me that day
They'll make great Xmas presents for you
There's sure a way you could join me
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
So, here I'm all dressed in white
Before the angels took me away
Whatever happened to the promises that you gave
I'm with you all the time
Dead by Xmas, dead and gone
We'll be making love eternally
I've seen it all in a dream
Like not to be alive anymore
While you're drinking up my best red wine
I've been dead since Xmas now anyway
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Dead by Xmas, dead and gone
You'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
And for all my friends
Be sure I can't get no rest
Please give all my things away
It hurts so inside to see you with another
When you've found a new one
I know just how it's gonna feel
My temperature it's gettin' too low
Xmas is forever
Who's better than I ever was?
It's getting so lonely without you
So, leave the flowers on my grave
We'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Come up, come up, come up, come up
[Incomprehensible]
And I'm sure, I am jealous too
We'll sell everything away
