Written in five minutes, recorded in a couple hours, to be enjoyed for centuries to come! It's the song the post office doesn't want you to hear. Dedicated to all those who forgot the air holes...

lyrics

It's getting cold
It's getting dark too soon
The frozen clouds have gathered 'round the moon
I'm feeling kind of lonely
I think I'll try something new
For Christmas I will mail myself to you

I'll find a box that's big enough to fit
And put a little food inside of it
And buy a lot of postage stamps and give each one a lick
Write fragile on the top and hop in quick

And I'll be on my way to your house
And I really hope you're there
So you can sign for me and open me
And show me that you care
And hopefully I won't forget
To poke some holes for air

I'll pop out wrapped in paper and a bow
And we'll go for a walk out in the snow
And sit down by the fire and talk about what we should do
When I go home might need a box for two

For Christmas I will mail myself to you
