Mistletoe

Mistletoe
Mistletoe (mistletoe!)
Mistletoe
Mistletoe (mistletoe!)
Oh Gosh, I just hate these office parties and I never get kissed
Wait! I know, I’ll go stand under by the mistletoe in the hallway there
And I know one of those babes is gonna kiss me
OK, here I am, oh look, it’s Betty from accounting
And look at the bozzongas on her!
She’s coming closer, come to papa now…
Yes, yes, oh, oh… ah, shoot! She walked right on by me!
One of the longest enduring symbols
Of the holidays has been mistletoe
Whose botanical name is plantius kissius
The ancient Egyptians used the plant
As a potion d’amore or love potion
Until it was discovered to be a deadly poison
Look over there by the mistletoe, see it’s Bob
Oh no, it’s just like last year; I don’t know what his problem is
What a dweeb, as if anyone’s gonna actually kiss him!
(Mistletoe) I’m gonna get a kiss, I know
(Mistletoe) Standin' here by the mistletoe
(Mistletoe) All the girls, they can’t resist
(Mistletoe) Looks like now, I’m gonna get kissed
Well, okay, the hallway just didn’t work out
But there’s more mistletoe out here by the food
Yeah, yeah, it’s gonna work this time
Ok, ok here comes Joanne, well, she’s not bad; she’s ok
I mean, I wouldn’t push her out from under the mistletoe
It’s gonna happen this time, I’m gonna close my eyes and pucker up.
Come to papa baby, Ah, oh yeah
Ah, shoot, she walked right by me again!
Mistletoe was first brought to the Americas
Aboard the Mayflower in 14 hundred and 92
At the first Thanksgiving, the pilgrims tied some of the plant
Onto a kite and flew it high over the festivities
Thus initiating Centuries of goodwill
Between newcomers and their Native-American friends
I’d like to get something to eat, but he just keeps standing there
How many bologna roll-ups has he eaten anyway?
I don’t know, how many were there?
Yeah, everyone’s gonna want to kiss Mr. Dogbreath now
(Mistletoe) I’m gonna get a kiss, I know
(Mistletoe) Stationed here by the mistletoe
(Mistletoe) All the girls, they can’t resist
(Mistletoe) Looks like now, I’m gonna get kissed
Ah, I can’t believe it!
Standing under the mistletoe all night, and not even a single kiss
I mean the bologna roll-ups were good, but I may as well go home
Oh, get a load of this
It’s Thomasina and some of her girlfriends from the loading dock
(Yoo-hoo Bob!) Hand me a harpoon
Wait a minute; they’re coming straight for me
They’re, you don’t think they’re gonna… No…
