I Can't Keep up with the Holidays
Struggling Through the Holidays: A Raw Take on Christmas Realities
Lyrics
What the hell do you want? I'm broke.
Expressing frustration and financial hardship, questioning the listener's demands.
Trying to keep the god damn heat on.
Struggling to afford heating expenses during the winter.
This season is a fucking joke.
Critical view of the holiday season, considering it absurd or disappointing.
I'm struggling to make the rent on time.
Facing difficulty in paying rent on time.
I hope that the landlord chokes
Expressing a wish for the landlord's misfortune due to financial strain.
On my last penny
Having almost no money left.
On December 25th.
Highlighting financial struggles during the Christmas holiday.
I've got nothing in my pockets
Being financially destitute, emphasizing the emptiness of pockets.
And you're asking for all of it, so
Complaining about someone asking for money despite the financial difficulties.
Merry god damn Christmas
Sarcastically wishing a merry Christmas despite the hardships.
Hope you get plenty of presents
Ironically wishing the listener to receive many gifts.
Sorry that I can't afford to
Expressing regret for not being able to afford meaningful presents.
Show you that I give a shit aside from
Acknowledging the inability to demonstrate care through material gifts.
Spending time with you
Valuing time spent together as a meaningful form of connection.
So merry god damn Christmas.
Repeating the sarcastic wish for a merry Christmas despite the hardships.
Everywhere I see a fucking ad.
Observing an abundance of holiday-related advertisements.
20 PERCENT OFF OF YOUR MAD OUTRAGEOUS ORDER
Mocking the aggressive marketing strategy with a specific discount offer.
IF YOU ADD THE COUPON SANTAS LITTLE BITCH' UPON YOUR CHECKOUT
Highlighting the insensitivity of using a coupon with a disrespectful name.
Fucking tone deaf corporations
Criticizing corporations for being out of touch with the financial struggles of individuals.
Reaching for your empty wallets
Describing corporations reaching for consumers' money despite financial difficulties.
Turn around and blame inflation
Blaming inflation for economic challenges faced by individuals.
Making record fucking profits.
Pointing out corporations making significant profits despite economic challenges.
Merry god damn Christmas
Repeating the sarcastic wish for a merry Christmas despite the economic struggles.
Hope you get plenty of presents
Ironically wishing the listener to receive many gifts despite the financial difficulties.
Sorry that I can't afford to
Reiterating regret for the inability to afford meaningful presents.
