Merry Christmas Emily

Emily, she was twenty-three
Sitting on the ground under a dead palm tree
6th and Speedway on Christmas Day
It seemed like things were gonna go my way

But we had some good times
Drinking cheap wine and popping pills
Spending the holidays
Getting drunk at the rusty nail

And then there's Emily from a good family
They fucked up your head and they sent you to me
"It's a Wonderful Life", is playing on the TV
I think about you, do you still think about me

Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily
I still think about you, do you still thing about me

Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily

It might have seemed that I was down and out
But my insurance claim was still paying out
Well, you were heading back up while I was going down
So I reformed the band to try to keep you around

Then we had some bad times
Drinking wine in the summer heat
A couple loud arguments
Standing in the middle of Congress St.

Then there's Emily under that dead palm tree
It's Christmas day and it's like 80 degrees
I still think about you, do you still think about me

Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily
I still think about you, do you still think about me

Merry Christmas Emily

Merry Christmas Emily
I still think about you, do you still think about me

Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily
Merry Christmas Emily
I still think about you, do you still think about me

Merry Christmas Emily

Merry Christmas Emily
I still think about you, do you still think about me
