about
I got the idea during the summer to write a reggae on and decided it’d be a parody of cheesy pothead reggae songs(see “Smoke Two Joints” etc.) and writing about getting high on Christmas.
lyrics
Put it in your pipe and smoke it
Drag down all you might and toke it
Know it sure wasn't I who broke it
Can't you feel the spirit?
Green happiness, let me be near it
Holiday season, no reason to fear it
I get more high on it as the years do pass
I wanna get high on Christmas
It's really none of your business
So please don't ask me why
I gotta get high on Christmas
Cuz so many people die on Christmas
And I just wanna get high
I wanna get high on Christmas
It's really none of your business
So please don't ask me why
I gotta get high on Christmas
Cuz so many people die on Christmas
And I just wanna get high
I'll be sitting here like a rabbit
See my nuts and I will grab it
When munchies come, I gotta have it
I'm so old but I'm feeling young
I got that taste stuck on my tongue
I think I smoke away my lungs oh yeah
This year I'm dragging down some Christmas grass
It's a good time for care and joy
Not depending on faith or belief
It's a time when every gentle soul
Can toke on that mighty sweet leaf
