Lyrics

Don’t Mistletoe on Me
Verse 1:
Snow is falling, and I’m keeping cool,
Mistletoe’s hanging, but I’m no fool.
You think it’s sweet, got a plan in mind,
But I’m not the girl who’ll be easy to find.

Pre-Chorus:
I’ve seen it all before, you’re here to satisfy
Standing ‘neath the green, trying to catch my eye.
But I’m dancing to my own beat, not tied down,
This holiday, babe, I’m painting the town.

Chorus:
Don’t mistletoe on me, don’t even try,
I’m flying solo, just enjoying the sky.
Got my own rhythm, can’t tie me down,
Underneath those leaves, it’s an open playground.

Verse 2:
The fire’s burning, and the lights are bright,
But I’m not looking for a holiday knight.
You’ve got your charm, but I’ve got my groove,
I don’t need mistletoe to make the first move.

Pre-Chorus:
You’re setting up the scene, think you’re so sly,
But I see through the plan, don’t need a reason why.
I’m out here having fun, no mistletoe games,
But if you want a kiss, then just say my name.

Chorus:

Bridge:
You think you’ve got me cornered, but I’m slipping through,
Mistletoe’s your weapon, but I’ve got something new.
I’ll write my own rules, play my own song,
This holiday season, I’m moving along.

Chorus:

Outro:
So if you see me out, just let me be,
I’m making my own way, mistletoe-free.
No need for berries, to spark some kissing,
I’ll choose my moments, without resisting.

I dont like xmas songs generally but this is good - great title to kick off ! really nice one

That title is a stroke of genius. I am *totally* using "mistletoe" as a verb now. Because it's instantly obvious how it should be used. And the lyrics confirm it; what a picture you paint with
"You’ve got your charm, but I’ve got my groove, /
I don’t need mistletoe to make the first move. "
Huge fun. Only 109 sleeps until Christmas!

it's so rare to hear an original take on the whole holiday season song but this is fabulously unique and well written with that wonderful vocal and added jingles for the win! 🤶🏼
