Take a piece of tinsel and put it on the tree 
Cut a slab of melon and pretend that you still love me 
Carve out a pumpkin and rely on your destiny 
Get in your car and cruise the land of the brave and free 
But don't forget to understand 
Exactly what you put on the tree 
Don't believe the florist when he tells you 
That the roses are free 
Take a wrinkled raisin and do with it what you will 
Push it into third if you know you're gonna climb a hill 
Eat plenty of lasagna till you know that you've had your fill 
Resist all the urges that make you wanna go out and kill 
But don't forget to understand 
Exactly what you put on the tree 
Don't believe the florist when he tells you 
That the roses are free 
Throw that pumpkin at the tree 
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny 
Cast it off into the sea 
Bake that pie and eat it with me 
Throw that pumpkin at the tree 
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny 
Cast it off into the sea 
Bake that pie and eat it with me
