Made For TV Lyrics

It's Christmas time again

And I can't find the words to say

I wish you would go away

You came around in June

And all your colours caught my eye

Christmas in July

(Why?)

Was it the music in the background

Or the words that you said

Or the promise of a romance

Now that romance is dead

I've seen every part of you while I've been lying in bed

It's true

What am I gonna do?

(What am I gonna do?)

Cause I've had enough of all these

Made-for-TV Christmas movies

Watch one or two and you've seen them all

But every year the channel appears

Sharing twenty four seven Christmas cheer

But the stories are all the same and the acting ain't great

My least favourite way to spend the holidays

I turned you on too many times in the middle of the night

(He turned you on too many times in the middle of the night)

But quickly come to realise it's the same film every time

Oh yeah

And like John McClane I'm back again for four or five films

And like the Grinch I start to flinch when I hear Christmas bells

I just think why did someone sign up on this movie from hell?

Oh, why

It just makes me wanna cry

Cause I've had enough of all these

Made-for-TV Christmas movies

Watch one or two and you've seen them all

But every year the channel appears

Sharing twenty four seven Christmas cheer

But the stories are all the same and the acting ain't great

My least favourite way to spend the holidays

So where did the classics go

Bring back the ones we all used to know

Give me Kevin outsmarting Marv and Harry

And a full-grown man painted green must be Jim Carrey

And take me back to that miracle on 34

A Christmas carol

Cue cards right outside of Keira Knightley's door

God Only Knows Blaring in the background of the airport scene

And Michael Caine as Scrooge

And Will Ferrell dressed head-to-toe in green

And show me Chevy chasing down the perfect Christmas fantasy

The Snowman walking in the air

Lasso the moon like George Bailey

And Clarence gets his wings

And Bill Nighy sings about the feeling in his toe

Everyone knows these are the moments of the greatest Christmas movie

Cause I've had enough of all these

Made-for-TV Christmas movies

Watch one or two and you've seen them all

But every year the channel appears

Sharing twenty four seven Christmas cheer

But the stories are all the same and the acting ain't great

My least favourite way to spend the holidays
