Year of the Cat - Chris Isaak

I gotta get my girl a present She got one for me She wrapped it up real pretty It's underneath a tree She goes shopping early I go way too late Every year's the same thing I procrastinate It's almost Christmas And I'm the last one in the store It's almost Christmas I can't do this anymore It's almost Christmas I can hear those sleigh bells ring It's almost Christmas and I haven't bought a thing I should buy her fancy earrings Maybe find the right perfume I'm open to suggestions But they better get here soon She goes shopping early I go way too late Every year's the same thing I procrastinate It's almost Christmas And I'm the last one in the store It's almost Christmas I can't do this anymore It's almost Christmas Did I hear a sleigh bell ring? It's almost Christmas and I haven't bought a thing Everything is closing down Not one present have I found Now they're locking up the door I don't know what I'm shopping for It's almost Christmas And I'm the last one in the store It's almost Christmas I can't do this anymore It's almost Christmas Did I hear a sleigh bell ring It's almost Christmas and I haven't bought a thing Almost Christmas (the door will be closing in five minutes) It's almost Christmas (thank you for shopping) Yeah, yeah It's almost Christmas It's almost Christmas

It seems so long since you told me That it was just me and you I wish tonight you could hold me I've got these holiday blues There's folks out shopping for presents Lovers pass by, two by two They're in a world, oh, so pleasant But I've got holiday blues Where will I go It won't be Christmas without you What would I do if you decide we are through? Where will I go It won't be Christmas without you Darling, what will I do if you decide we are through? I had a dream that you love me And that you'd whisper be true But it was only a dream, dear I've got these holiday blues

Like the clothes, like the tan, like the way you shake it. Your the kind of a girl I can tell you make it. Your the kind of a girl I can tell your goin' nowhere. Your goin' nowhere. Like the lips, like the look, like the way you show it. Your the kind of girl that I like you know it. Your the kind of a girl I would say your goin' nowhere. Your goin' nowhere. So take a ride with me now baby, hop inside and maybe baby. We can find a way to make it all ok. Yeah. Like the stance, like the sky, like the way you shake it. Your the kind of a girl that looks better naked. Your the kind of a girl I would say is goin' nowhere. Your goin' nowhere.
