    The joyous and grievous Christmas sound of the suburbs. Who could possibly have more to complain about at Christmas than a whiny teenager with a godawful mid-Atlantic accent? No one, that's who. Happy Christmas to you and yours!

about

Recorded by the St. Martin's High School Recording Club dream team, Fall 1988.

lyrics

Well it happens only once a year
When a trip to the shopping mall induces fear
The gifts you have wrapped are now all broken
All that's left of your money is a subway token

Planned Obsolescence Christmas

Until boxing day every sale is final
When your new Christmas records aren't available on vinyl
