Happy Holidays, Too

On the day before the day before Christmas
 There's a friend of a friend of a friend
 With a ride to the train to the airport
 with the gifts you'd forgotten to send
 you've never been so good at all this hurry up and wait
 And you almost miss your flights while online shopping at the gate
 Merry Christmas to everyone who's joining us at gate 30 tonight
 and Happy Holidays too
 there's a line for the line for the airplane
 there's a sports team and some kind of band
 you look in your bag for your ticket
 it's always been right in your hand
 And they're trying to explain why there might be a delay
 and you never could be worried about time on holidays
 The pilot's got a music chip in his tie
 and he's making it sing deck the halls
 it's somebody's very first airplane ride
 she makes a lot of noise for being so small
 On the day before the day after New year's
 to the plane from the gate from the car
 you text your goodbyes as you're boarding
 and they're trying to check your guitar
 And it's not so very festive, riding airplanes all alone
 but it's the only way of celebrating that you've known
 Merry Christmas to everyone who's joining us at gate 30 tonight
 and Happy Holidays too
