lyrics
Well I grew in a place
where I could only find death
We were all the same
Forgot our own names
Then I was cut by a man
And another one took me away
They dressed me up with beautiful lights
I was the driving force of their lives
But they threw me away
In the street
Just after New year's day
Cause I'm a christmas tree
In the street people trod on me
And I smelt dirt and spit
Then I was picked up in a truck
Where I found the ones I grew with
They threw us away
In the street
Just after New year's day
Cause we are christmas trees
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
They will throw you away
In the street
Whenever they want
Cause you're a fucking christmas tree
A fucking christmas tree
A fucking christmas tree
where I could only find death
We were all the same
Forgot our own names
Then I was cut by a man
And another one took me away
They dressed me up with beautiful lights
I was the driving force of their lives
But they threw me away
In the street
Just after New year's day
Cause I'm a christmas tree
In the street people trod on me
And I smelt dirt and spit
Then I was picked up in a truck
Where I found the ones I grew with
They threw us away
In the street
Just after New year's day
Cause we are christmas trees
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
Everybody's a christmas tree
They will throw you away
In the street
Whenever they want
Cause you're a fucking christmas tree
A fucking christmas tree
A fucking christmas tree
