It's only 5am, but it's 35 degrees Jack spent last night drinking and he's taken out the tree The kids are getting restless Mum's running out of patience Christmas in the summer in the suburbs The kitchen's hotter than hell But mum's still gotta cook lunch The snags go on the barbie as the rum goes in the punch Bob sets up the paddle pool The Esky keeps the bevvies cool Christmas in the summer in the suburbs Aunty Joan's arrived with a plate of salmonella Uncle Tony sends his love but he's still stuck in the slammer It's the first time Cousin Ben's been here Since the turkey incident last year Christmas in the summer in the suburbs Everybody's stuffed, so we head down to the beach It helps to break the tension caused by mum's unwanted speech She polished off the jelly shots So we're swinging by the bottle shop Christmas in the summer in the suburbs The sun begins to set Another year in the books A standard summer Christmas Our backs and arms are cooked Families go our separate ways The leftovers drag on for days Christmas in the summer in the suburbs The kids already wrecked their gifts But mum couldn't really give a shit Christmas in the summer in the suburbs The dog found Benny's souvenir He leaves the same thing every year Christmas in the summer in the suburbs No one's heard from Uncle Steve Only six more days til New Years Eve Christmas in the summer in the suburbs
