Barrett's singing is amazing and the song does a good job of conveying the feelings of the character but the number of times she says daddy really tests my patience
I love this song. My parents are divorced, and my dad only sits in front of the computer all day. So this song to me is what I imagine having a good dad is like.
Christmas is so freaking annoying The ornaments and cards are all so fake Candy canes all taste like 10 year old toothpaste And gingerbread gives me a raging stomachache The carols are so stale and relentless They carry through the air like the smell of something bad But the one thing I look forward to This time of year is spending Christmas with my Dad Spending Christmas with my Dad. He comes in with his arms full of presents His smile is wide his hair is full of snow He pulls out his guitar and lays down a classic bar from an underrated hit from long ago And when he sings my heart flies wide open I’m happy but I guess a little sad Cause he doesn’t visit me I just watch him on TV And that’s how I spend Christmas with my dad Merry Christmas Daddy! That’s Christmas with my dad I’ve “DVRed” his shows since I was 9 I’ve memories each song in every line When mom’s not home I turn them on and revel in the sound It’s what the house would be like if dad had stayed around I ask him ‘bout the cities that he toured He’d show how me how to play a 7th chord It sucks to know your dad from specials on TV I wish he thought I was special as his specials are to me! Christmas is so freaking depressing Commercialism, Suicides and Snow Mom goes on defense builds just kind of dense They’re the only family that I know But tomorrow when I turn on the TV I’ll see the family that I could’ve have had It’s the one thing I look forward this time of year Spending Christmas with my dad Merry Christmas daddy Maybe one he would be on the side of the TV Will make fun of the carolers and BURN down the tree And that’s the greatest present there could ever be Dad spending Christmas with me Won’t you be there daddy? Spend your Christmas with MEEEEEEEEEEE!
This song hits home especially hard for me as a dad who hates Christmas and gets really bad during that time. I’ll never not feel emotional when hearing this song.
Agreste-ive much? No, it's going on broadway soon I believe. It's not out yet, they're just getting the soundtrack out! But maybe Mike Pettry will comment and correct me if no one else does if I'm wrong!
Awesome! Thank you so much! I love this song (and every other song on the soundtrack) and have since the performance at the NY Theatre Barn! Can't wait! :)
Honestly the lack of heathers comments is absolutely terrific
Jordan Hershberger ah, just wait
Kat465k DONT YOU DARE
Jordan Hershberger *smiles deviously*
Kat465k im calling the cops
Jordan Hershberger Pfft- I’m too busy singing along to do that

Lieutenant Thalia that’s because her dad passed away when she was 7 so she really relates to the feeling of not having a father figure around

Christmas is so freaking annoying
The ornaments and cards are all so fake
Candy canes all taste like 10 year old toothpaste
And gingerbread gives me a raging stomachache
The carols are so stale and relentless
They carry through the air like the smell of something bad
But the one thing I look forward to
This time of year is spending Christmas with my Dad
Spending Christmas with my Dad.
He comes in with his arms full of presents
His smile is wide his hair is full of snow
He pulls out his guitar and lays down a classic bar
from an underrated hit from long ago
And when he sings my heart flies wide open
I’m happy but I guess a little sad
Cause he doesn’t visit me I just watch him on TV
And that’s how I spend Christmas with my dad
Merry Christmas Daddy!
That’s Christmas with my dad
I’ve “DVRed” his shows since I was 9
I’ve memories each song in every line
When mom’s not home I turn them on and revel in the sound
It’s what the house would be like if dad had stayed around
I ask him ‘bout the cities that he toured
He’d show how me how to play a 7th chord
It sucks to know your dad from specials on TV
I wish he thought I was special as his specials are to me!
Christmas is so freaking depressing
Commercialism, Suicides and Snow
Mom goes on defense builds just kind of dense
They’re the only family that I know
But tomorrow when I turn on the TV
I’ll see the family that I could’ve have had
It’s the one thing I look forward this time of year
Spending Christmas with my dad
Merry Christmas daddy
Maybe one he would be on the side of the TV
Will make fun of the carolers and BURN down the tree
And that’s the greatest present there could ever be
Dad spending Christmas with me
Won’t you be there daddy?
Spend your Christmas with MEEEEEEEEEEE!
Thank you! 😁
my friend said this song sounded like Heathers and I was like.... really...really...
Late but, the person singing this is the actor for Veronica from heathers
GrimPug The Animator/Gamer Everyone knows. That’s why this person was upset.
This song hits home especially hard for me as a dad who hates Christmas and gets really bad during that time. I’ll never not feel emotional when hearing this song.
I love her voice so much. I'm looking forward to this show! I do hope it goes good while on broadway. Maybe one day I'll see it. ;o;
Was it on broadway? I can only find concerts from last year..
Agreste-ive much? No, it's going on broadway soon I believe. It's not out yet, they're just getting the soundtrack out! But maybe Mike Pettry will comment and correct me if no one else does if I'm wrong!
