House of Broken Gingerbread - The Monkees

Fa la-la, fa-la la-la la

Fa la-la, fa-la la-la la

Two mountains of presents

Two glittering trees

Both frosted in tinsel

And blue LEDs

Two platters of cookies

And peppermint bark

Two baby messiahs

Aglow in the dark

Two decks of UNO

And two sets of Clue

There’s double the Christmas

But I’m torn in two

In the house of broken gingerbread

Butterscotch and candy cigarettes

Sugar snow on the flowerbed

At the house of (House of)

Broken gingerbread

Fa la-la, fa-la la-la la

Oh, yeah

Fa la-la, fa-la la-la la

And there they go sledding

Here there’s a pool

The boyfriend’s a dentist

The step-mom is cool

Dad gave me a brother

Mom promised a dog

And one of those French cakes

Disguised as a log

Two-hearted Christmas

Half-hearted day

St. Nick and the wise men

Got lost on the way

To the house of broken gingerbread

Butterscotch and candy cigarettes

Sugar snow on the flowerbed

At the house of (House of)

Broken gingerbread

Mistletoe is hanging by a thread

And the mystic toys just shake their heads

Stockings hung up and full of dread

At the house of (House of)

Broken gingerbread
