Secret Army - Fired In Christmas lyrics

rate me

Walking down the blinking lights

It's kinda cold today

Well, around here it never snows but it's Christmas time again

I go downtown to see my mates tonight I'm gonna get drunk

It was my last day at job cause I've been fired in Christmas

The boss took me to his office and he told me here it goes son

The company has been sold and half the lot have to go

So here I am with a check in my hand going down the bar

With a silly smile on my face, I'm gonna get drunk tonight

I step into the bar all my mates are there, everybody's happy and drunk

I order a beer, then two, then three and I start to feel alright

One our later I'm drunk as hell, we toast to crappy jobs

Happy fucking Christmas to everyone we are gonna burn this city tonight

And the girl at the front catches my eye

I ask her for a kiss and she gives me a smack

And all around me everybody smiles

Alcohol has taken me to the promised land

Tomorrow I'll wake up alone again

With hammers striking my head

Life is just a cruel joke

Boy you gotta get a new job

Oh, yeah...I've been fired in Christmas
