The Bad List Lyrics by Z Berg

Get Z to a Nunnery

2018

[Verse 1: Z Berg]
If it were me, I'd write another song
Something in a major key
You and I will always be "the dream"
It was a scream when we were young and dumb
Acid on Topanga Beach
In my mind we'll always be that free
But something changed along the way
Winter never turned to spring
[Chorus: Z Berg & Ryan Ross]
It's Christmas Eve, you set the house on fire
It's snowing on palm trees
The river has run dry
So let me set you free
Let me help you please
Say goodbye on Christmas Eve
[Verse 2: Ryan Ross]
All the lights are on, but no one's home
Out cold on my frozen feet
With nothing lying underneath the tree
The only soul I knew to telephone
Knows I'm lying through my teeth
We were always thick as thieves, you and me
But something changed along the way
Winter never turned to spring
[Chorus: Z Berg & Ryan Ross]
It's Christmas Eve, you set the house on fire
It's snowing on palm trees
If you stay, you're gonna die
So let me help you please
Let me help you leave
Say goodbye on Christmas Eve
[Bridge: Z Berg & Ryan Ross]
But there's no bandage
There ain't no ballad
To fix the sadness
So happy Christmas
Back on the bad list
I don't want no gifts
Just a first kiss
For the new year
Just a first kiss
To face the new year
[Outro: Z Berg with Ryan Ross]
If it were me, I'd write another song
Say goodbye
