Jesus Christ begged for more
Isn't that what Christmas is for?
King of pain, keeping score
Hanging right outside your bedroom door
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
I get you, why don't you get me too?
Galilee did not care
You're not sad when I'm not there
You don't hear my last words
Guess I'll sing them to the birds
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
I get you, why don't you get me too?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
I get you, why can't you get me too?

Lyrics
Jesus Christ begged for more
Isn't that what Christmas is for?
King of pain, keeping score
Hanging right outside your door
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Galilee did not care
And you are glad when I'm not there
Take or leave my last words
I'll go clean pool furniture
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
Why don't you get me?
Why don't you get me?
What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do?
