I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
                            
And then, baby, I'm through
Four more weeks that couldn't make any difference
Except maybe to you

                               
But I've tried to use that trick
                               
Like a carrot on a stick
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then, baby, I'm through

I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
And then, baby, I'm done
One less fucker trying to get in the business
Of the prodigal son

Where I know I can't compete
Once I'm off of Hastings Street
So I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then, baby, I'm done
                                                  
'Cause I can't live loaded and I can't live sober
                                                 
And I've been this way since the end of October
  
And I know enough to know
                              
That, baby, when it's over, it's over
And it's over
                  
'Cause, baby, I'm done

I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
And then call it a day
Tell you I'm sorry that I made you a witness
To my moral decay

And that, once upon a time
I believed it was a victimless crime
I was thinking I could clean up for Christmas
Then call it a day
Then call it a day
Then call it a day
