lyrics

Mary Xmas

Intro
Hoo hoo hoo

Verse one
I met Mary Christmas on the third day of July, she was
Smokin’ outside Dimphna’s watching peacock brokers strut by, and she

Said they’re really cute in their skinny little suit, I got
Such a big thirst and I know they’ll leave me dry.

Verse two
Next time I saw Mary it was deep in January and I
Don’t think that she recognized my face.

She was snoggin’ in a corner with a balding Williamsburger in a
Dark but not yet trendy Red Hook place

And I started to get nervous that she might think I was pervin’ so I
Quickly devised a plan for my escape.

Just as I was leavin’ she blocked my point of egress put her
Hand upon me, looked at me that’s when she said
Chorus
Not a day has passed, since I saw you last
You have taken every piece of me
Not a day has passed, since I saw you last
You have taken every piece of me
Bridge

Verse three
So I went to Mary Christmas on the very next day
Down at the county courthouse but the magistrate was late. Must be a sign

Not to jump in, she said with a crooked grin, let’s
Race back to my place and leave the marriage to the gay.

Chorus
Not a day has passed, since I saw you last
You have taken every piece of me
Not a day has passed, since I saw you last
You have taken every piece of me
You have taken every piece of me
You have taken every piece of me
You have taken every last piece of me Hoo hoo hoo
