I Tried To Be Happy, I Really Did, It Escaped Me.

It was the week after Xmas and what did I see,
All the presents were gone from under the tree;

Lights were still flickering all around town,
Illuminating those who now had a frown;

I didn't get what I wanted, not now, never,
This must be "The Scariest Xmas Carol", Ever!

Now I have to wait in line to return a present,
Or I have to exchange it for something decent;

I tried to be happy, I really did, it escaped me.

This time of year always leaves me depressed,
Family and friends leave me so stressed;

Arguing over silly things, scary indeed,
Just want to shake sense into them all,
Tell them not to bother to call,
Take their drama somewhere else.

The scariest Christmas Carol to me,
Is the same old boring crap to see;

It never changes, every year is the same,
It is no longer fun and that is a shame.

Thanks, I guess it wasn't scary enough though!
