Set It Off - This Christmas Day (I'll Burn It To The Ground) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Tis the season to be jolly
Fa la la la la, la la la la...

Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!

Oh my God, it's here, this awful time of year
How I hate the snow is falling
Wealthy neighbors bragging about the gifts they're getting

Hey Jack! They say, let me see your gifts now! You're getting K-Mart clothes again!
And then, I had a revelation!
This is my chance to sew their lips clean shut with fear

Because...

This Christmas, I'll burn it to the ground!
This Christmas, Santa's skipping town!
This Christmas, everything will change, when they see the flames
This Christmas day!

Christmas lights alive, lighting up the night
Meanwhile I'm inside my room, conniving though the cheer and laughter that resumes

Tonights the night, I have to do it right now!
So, I will strike when all's asleep
And creep, sneaking through your chimney!
Saint Nic is gone for now

Up on the housetop, gifts are mine!
Kiss your Christmas tree goodbye!

Because...

This Christmas, I'll burn it to the ground!
This Christmas, Santa's skipping town!
This Christmas, everything will change, when they see the flames
This Christmas day!

Oh, make fun of me, will you?!
Well I'll show you what true misery feels like!
You see, as my idol once said
Everything burns!
Hey everyone! Look outside your window! I have a surprise for you!

Imagine this
One thousand gifts, and sixteen trees all lay in a heave in a cul-de-sac
I strike my match, and I blaze the trail of gasoline

This Christmas
I'm ending the game
This Christmas
What a crying shame
This Christmas

Because...

This Christmas, I'll burn it to the ground!
This Christmas, Santa skipping town!
This Christmas, everything will change, when they see the flames
This Christmas day!
