It's all horns and headlights
from here to downtown
Everyone's fed up and listless
The beautiful snowflakes turn gray on the ground
I'm stuck in the city on Christmas
I hope to see Santa if I'm not too late
I hung my old stocking from the fire escape
But partridge or pear tree nowhere to be found
Stuck in the city on Christmas
The young crowd around me don't seem to be grieved
They're just killing time waiting for New Year's Eve
I'll hum one more carol while i'm still allowed:
"Stuck in the City on Christmas"
