Wall Of Voodoo - Shouldn't Have Given Him A Gun For Christmas

[00:00.06] There's been snow covered Christmases
[00:04.45] And ones just of rain
[00:08.36] Of smoked hams and warm bread
[00:12.03] And shiny toy trains
[00:15.97] And though they've always been different
[00:20.44] They've all been the best
[00:24.55] Yet there's one I remember
[00:28.45] More tenderly than all the rest
[00:56.17] It all began with Uncle Jack
[00:58.84] He made a crack and wouldn't take it back
[01:01.12] Dad was drinking, he got sore
[01:04.14] There was a flash, and a crash
[01:06.53] It took the manger on the floor
[01:09.15] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[01:11.93] Shouldn't have given him a gun, gun, gun
[01:14.53] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[01:17.17] Look what Daddy has done, done, done!
[01:25.11] He put two slugs into the neighbor's door
[01:27.77] And kicked upon a raging scene
[01:30.47] The plastic baby Jesus he blew to smithereens
[01:35.13] I can't think about the nine year old
[01:38.35] Who only seems ten
[01:41.06] And how he went on cavelling to the doors of now dead man, oh
[01:46.45] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[01:49.08] Shouldn't have given him a gun, gun, gun
[01:51.77] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[01:54.36] Look what Daddy has done, done, done!
[01:57.14] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[01:59.77] Shouldn't have given him a gun, gun, gun
[02:02.37] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[02:04.97] Look what Daddy has done, done, done!
[02:12.56] O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
[02:16.54] Wie treu sind deine Biätter!
[02:21.06] Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit
[02:26.33] Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit
[02:30.98] O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
[02:35.81] Wie treu sind deine Biätter!
[02:39.08] Of course I could have been pizzas and all that but-
[02:45.93] Oooo, yeah!
[02:57.08] Shouldn't have given him a gun for Christmas
[02:59.74] Shouldn't have given him a gun, gun, gun
