C 
Christmas comes but once a year 
Am 
And when it comes it brings good cheer 
  Dm            G        C      G 
A season of goodwill and fun 
C 
And yet while most of us feel festive 
Em 
Grinches out there just get restive 
    D                     G 
And spoil it all for everyone 

Pre-Chorus 
            F                            C       A7 
Though it’s too much to expect you to be nice 
       D7                                   G 
You’ll find that life is easier with this advice 

 
G   C 
Try not to be a cunt – it’s Christmas. 
                        Dm7 
Take a tip from Santa’s elf 
    G7                       Am7               D 
The rest of us are doing our best to be jolly 
   D7                                                G 
So don’t go looking like you’ve swallowed a bunch of holly 
C                                F 
Don’t shout at carol singers and tell them to stop 
Fm                               G     D# 
Don’t buy your presents from the Oxfam shop 
    C              F      E7           Am 
For fuck’s sake be merry, have another sherry 
    D7         G7   C 
And try not to be a cunt. 
              A7 
(’Cos Santa’s coming) 
D7         G7   C 
Try not to be a cunt. 
                 A7 
(Look, there’s a reindeer.) 
D7         Dm7 G7 C 
Try not to be  a  cunt 
G                               C 
C–U–N–T cuntidy cuntidy cunt.
