Christmas Tree Man

[Verse 1]
You showed up late with your two-day stubble
Said
"Baby
I'm your holiday trouble"
But you crashed on the couch by half past three
Meanwhile my friends brought a Christmas tree

[Pre-Chorus]
It came in the door all wrapped in snow
Didn’t talk big
Just started to glow

[Chorus]
Why’s a Christmas tree better than a man?
It stays up longer
Understands the plan
Has cute little balls
All shiny and tan
And it looks real good with the lights still on
Yeah
It looks real good with the lights still on

[Verse 2]
You forget dates
You forget my name
Tree remembers every gift I gave
You keep score
Pick fights just because
Tree just stands there
Loves me as I am

[Pre-Chorus]
You dim out early
Phone in your hand
Tree lights up when I flip that stand

[Chorus]
Why’s a Christmas tree better than a man?
It stays up longer
Understands the plan
Has cute little balls
All shiny and tan
And it looks real good with the lights still on
Yeah
It looks real good with the lights still on

[Bridge]
Tree doesn’t gaslight
Doesn’t complain
Never says "relax
You’re just insane"
When I dress it up
It never objects
Just sparkles
Chuckles
Earns my respect

[Chorus]
Why’s a Christmas tree better than a man?
It stays up longer
Understands the plan
Has cute little balls
All shiny and tan
And it looks real good with the lights still on
