Mistletoe Meltdown - Matthew Parker

I was ten years old, waiting on Christmas Day

I could hardly wait, it was just one week away

And there were Christmas parties every couple days

With all my relatives so old, they got one foot in the grave

I was ten years old, waiting on Christmas Day

I was happier than Santa in his sleigh

When all of a sudden, Uncle John pointed out there was mistletoe

Right above me, then my Great-Aunt Betty

She leaned in for a kiss and I was mortified

My whole ten years of life flashed right before my eyes

And I said

Get that mistletoe away from me

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

Get your face away from me

No, no, no-no-no

Get that mistletoe away from me

Ain’t nobody want no cooties

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

No, no, no-no-no

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

No, no, no-no-no

I was ten years old, waiting on Christmas Day

As a ten-year-old, my face needed some space

So no offense to loving aunts, give your poor Matthew a chance

And just don’t kiss me, I’ll get PTSD

She leaned in for a kiss and I was mortified (I was mortified)

I’m sorry, ancient lady, but I would rather die (I would rather die)

And I said

Get that mistletoe away from me

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

Get your face away from me

No, no, no-no-no

Get that mistletoe away from me

Ain’t nobody want no cooties

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

No, no, no-no-no

Oh, no

I don’t wanna kiss nobody, no, no, no

No, no, no-no-no

All I want for Christmas is peace on earth and no kisses

And who on earth am I kidding, lots and lots of presents

But if I can’t have all this, I’ll settle for no kisses

This year, ooh

Get that mistletoe away from me

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

Get your face away from me

No, no, no-no-no

Get that mistletoe away from me

Ain’t nobody want no cooties

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

No, no, no-no-no

Oh, no

I don’t wanna kiss nobody, nobody

No, no, no-no-no

Oh, no

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

I don’t wanna kiss nobody

No, no, no-no-no
