* * * LYRICS * * *
I've got linens and silks, and shoes of the finest leather
Expensive designer brands and sentimental gifts from my mother
But when the air turns cold at the end of December
There's one item in my wardrobe that brings the most pleasure

I love my Ugly Christmas Sweater
My lovely Ugly Christmas Sweater
When the air turns cold at the end of December
It's the one thing in my wardrobe that brings me pleasure
I love you today, I will love you forever
My Ugly Christmas Sweater

I used to think I was perverted and would wear you in secret
I'm no longer ashamed, you're coming out of the closet
When the weather outside starts to feel like a freezer
I sing songs about you, just like that band Weezer™
Grinches call you names but you look wonderful to me
More and more admirers appreciate your beauty
We like to get together for a pub crawl or a party
And display your bright colors in all their blinding glory
I love my Ugly Christmas Sweater, etc...

Merry Christmas, Happy Solstice, Feliz Navidad
New trends and old traditions, bring 'em all on, good or bad
Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Festivus, no reason to discriminate
Bizarre is a plus, 'tis the season to celebrate
Throw in Halloween, Thanksgiving or the 4th of July
Who gives a flying sleigh as long as it catches the eye
On a canvas of synthetic yarn, here's Rudolph the reindeer
And Old McDonald on his farm with a frosty mug of German beer
I love my Ugly Christmas Sweater, etc...

Stimulate all the senses, add layers, sounds, and textures
You might kill your camera lenses if you take too many pictures
Light it up like an electrode, watch out for any loose wire
Remember there's no safety code, stay away from chestnuts on the fire
Hang candy canes and jingle bells, forget your inhibitions
Pin a Noah's Ark or surfing elves, ignore all rules and conventions
All the creatures are stirring, even a mouse
Mrs. Claus is getting naughty in the gingerbread house
I love my Ugly Christmas Sweater, etc...
