Nostalgia for Now Noel Lyrics

Yesterday

Watching antiques roadshow

At a location we both know

They were pricing a couple o' Toby Jugs

That look so much like us

That the kids laughed out of their noses

And call you jug face one

And me jug face two

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have

Living in the North

Night seems constant in the winter

Seeps in my hands

Like the toner from my printer

A dark, thick, like we're pushing around underwater

A heavy cloak I can't quite

Throw off on my shoulders

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have

But lately I've been treating it all like an adventure

A duvet-den with too hot lamp at the centre

Thought I did my best work young, like I was Dexter Fletcher

But my Press Gang's to come, my peak, my splendor

Only two hours left

For once we've

Done almost all the prep

We've wrapped and wept

We've forgone all the dramas

Dressed in matching elf pyjamas

Got Old quick like Fernando González

But I'm only just getting started

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have

This is the best Christmas

We'll ever have
