[00:00.00]Smith And Burrows - This Ain't New Jersey [00:01.93] [00:05.16] [00:47.04]I ain't laughing [00:49.80]I didn't hear the joke anyway. [00:53.12]I got my fingers on the window as the snow makes this a prison [00:58.41]Tomorrow will be Christmas Day. [01:01.13]I took you drinking [01:04.51]To say the things that I needed to say. [01:08.31]You drank me under the table like you always do [01:12.97]And the radio just plays away [01:15.92]Those same old songs [01:20.35]Every single year. [01:24.17]We drink, we sing, [01:26.03]and I forgete the things that I need you to hear [01:32.90] [01:33.89]And we argue, [01:35.54]As the snow seals us in for the night. [01:38.92]You say Santa锘 Claus is coming, but I don't care what the song says [01:43.59]That's never gonna sound quite right. [01:48.06]And this ain't New Jersey, [01:50.47]Father Christmas is comin' to town, [01:54.05]You throw your drink in my face, throw that look in my direction [01:58.14]And the radio plays on and on [02:00.93] [02:01.34]Those same old songs, [02:06.32]Every single year. [02:09.61]We drink, we sing, what a state we're in, but it's Christmas, my dear. [02:17.58]And workmen quit锘 the roads as the barman quits his tea, [02:20.95]He's praying that the storm will ease up over London. [02:25.09]He knows he shouldn't drive, he'd be sleeping in his car [02:28.43]And that just ain't no good [02:30.90] [02:32.30]The floorboards of the pub, they just buckle with our love, [02:36.15]Cause when we fight I love you more. [02:38.04]Like your favorite film, [02:40.14]It's a wonderful life, you've seen it a hundred times, [02:43.78]But you don't get bored, [02:45.98]you don't get bored, you don't get bored [02:53.24]Eleven thirty, Christmas eve turning into Christmas day. [02:59.40]I ask you how you're feeling, [03:01.27]You answer 'I'm aging', [03:02.98]I remember what I need to say [03:05.88] [03:06.82]I'm Jimmy Stewart, in that film that you hold so dear, [03:14.06]I may have had a bit to drink, [03:16.18]I may have done some dumb things, [03:18.44]But I'm glad the storm has trapped me here, [03:21.49]With you. [03:24.08] [03:52.31]And as workmen quit the roads, the barman quits his tea, [03:56.38]He's praying that the storm will ease up over London. [04:00.12]He knows he shouldn't drive, he'd be sleeping in his锘 car [04:03.72]And that just ain't no good [04:06.24] [04:07.19]The floorboards of the pub, they锘 just buckle with our love, [04:11.21]Cause when we fight I love you more. [04:13.25]Like your favorite film, [04:15.09]It's a wonderful life, you've seen it a thousand times, [04:19.06]But you don't get bored, [04:21.27]you don't get bored, no you don't get bored [04:30.53]Still those same old songs, fill the air, [04:38.51]We drink, we sing, what a state we're in.
