Christmas Eve night, drunks have a fight
They’re not calm, they’re not bright
Trying to buy wives a last minute gift
Grabbing the last one, it’s caused a huge rift
Cops called to uphold the peace
Cops called to uphold the peace
Christmas Eve night, drunks have a fight
They’ll regret it at daylight
Both displaying a painful black eye
Vying for perfume that’s in short supply
They treat each other with scorn
They treat each other with scorn
Christmas Eve night, drunks have a fight
Both responsible for their plight
Radiant beams come from a cop car
Sent to the cooler - it’s not very far
There there’s no festive mirth
There there’s no festive mirth
