Every year it's the same troop Who seem to show up in a group Relations that you never see But, still they are your family Gifts are opened, clear the floor Then you hear them at the door Relations that you never see Except to eat your food for free They never write, they never phone All they do is sit and moan Relations that you never see They don't look like either you or me Every year it is the same They burst on in, don't know your name Relations that you never see Thieving hospitality We don't know where these people live They always take, they never give Relations that you never see That's how it will always be Merry Christmas, how's the folks Drink your drink, and smoke your smokes Relations that you never see Fulfill their Christmas dream for free.

Christmas relations
Every year it's the same troop Who seem to show up in a group Relations that you never see But, still they are your family Gifts are opened, clear the floor Then you hear them at the door Relations that you never see Except to eat your food for free They never write, they never phone All they do is sit and moan Relations that you never see They don't look like either you or me Every year it is the same They burst on in, don't know your name Relations that you never see Thieving hospitality We don't know where these people live They always take, they never give Relations that you never see That's how it will always be Merry Christmas, how's the folks Drink your drink, and smoke your smokes Relations that you never see Fulfill their Christmas dream for free.
