"Seven Holy Nights" lyrics

"Seven Holy Nights"

Here's to you, my dear friends, may our Christmas last forever
Here's to you, my dear friends, may this Christmas never end

We're a cheerful family, we always get it right
Especially around Christmas, when the trees are full of lights
We couldn't wait to celebrate a very special feast
Invited all our mates, the mayor and the priest

We conceived a clever plan, we like to party hard
Called our friends and relatives, sent invitation cards
We asked Old Jack, the fisherman, and even Chuck, the freak
To join the holy jamboree, and it would last a week!

Grandma danced, my brother sang, my lovely mother cried
And I remember not a day, but almost seven nights
Chrimbo beers and Chrimbo cheers a whole week, holy shite!
And I remember not one single day, but seven holy nights!

A Christmas week, not more or less oh, that was something new
We served the liquor right away, so we all skipped the brew
Cheers to you, son of the Lord, we wish you all the best
We'll have a glass to you, my friend, tomorrow we'll be blessed!

And when that week was over, oh Lord, I have to say
All the guests were whacked as hell and needed holidays
It took a while to sober up, but what did I hear then?
It's New Year's Eve, my friends, let's do it all again!

The priest went mad, my cousin fell, there was no end in sight
And I remember not a day, but almost seven nights
Chrimbo beers and Chrimbo cheers a whole week, holy shite!
And I remember not one single day, but seven holy nights!

Here's to you, my dear friends, may our Christmas last forever
Here's to you, my dear friends, may this Christmas never end
Here's to you, my dear friends, may our Christmas last forever
Here's to you, my dear friends, may this Christmas never end

We all went nuts, there was no end in sight
And I remember not a day, but almost seven nights
Chrimbo beers and Chrimbo cheers a whole week, holy shite!
And I remember not one single day, but seven holy nights!
