The Vandals - Grandpa's Last Christmas lyrics

rate me

Mom Says, "Put on your Christmas best."

Grandpa's coming down this year and it might be his last.

Why Mom? You say that every time.

It seem that he's been dying ever since I was nine.

I don't mean no disrespect because he's old and mean.

But how come we invite him when he always makes a scene?

Tell me

Why Does, he hit me with his cane?

And why should I get him a gift if he doesn't know my name?

How come, he always calls me "Kate"

and forgets his dentures on his dinner plate?

This could be Grandpa's last Christmas

That's what Mother said.

This could be Grandpa's last Christmas

And soon he might be dead, so be nice.

What can I say to someone 300 years old?

When he seems so content staring at the jello mold.

Please Mom, let me go out and play

or soon I will go deaf like him from hearing him complain.

I know, his life's been long and hard

but he deserves some quiet and peace in a nice graveyard

Grandpa, I love you just the same

But I know that you won't be happy until you drive us all insane

This could be Grandpa's last Christmas

That's what Mother said.

This could be Grandpa's last Christmas

And soon he might be dead, so be nice.

be nice...to Grandpa...cuz he's old....and he smells,

and he's gonna die soon...be nice to Grandpa
