[C]
Christmas comes but once a year and mostly it is swell, but there's an epidemic that
I think we all know well, know well.
Your smile is frozen open, there's a crazed look in your eye.
You overflow with compliments while trying to deny [Dm] that you know [G] the gift you opened.
You try to keep your grace, [Dm] your scary [G] grin is frozen, [Dm] don't you know [G] you've got a case
of [C] present face, present face, [F] present face, present face.
[C] Oh, thank you so much!
[C] You really hoped your parents [F] would give you a [C] great big check, instead you got a puffy
[F] painted hummingbird [C] turtleneck, and you hoped for an engagement [F] ring inside that [C] tiny box,
but your stupid former future [F] husband only bought you socks, [Dm] and your face is [G] all contorted
[Dm] as you're trying [G] to erase [Dm] the truth [G] behind your smile, [Dm] don't you know you've [G] got a case
of [C] present face, present face, [F] present face, [Fm] present face.

Do they see how much I hate it?
[G] I hope that they don't know, [Am] I can't tell if they're on to me, [F] oh please don't [G] let it show!
[C] Baby Jesus got [F] some gold, what all [C] infants prefer, I bet he got the present [F] face with
[C] frankincense and myrrh, Christmas and his birthday [F] are both on the [C] 25th, it must have
sucked to have to [F] open [C] combination gifts, [Dm] but if Jesus [G] couldn't hide it [Dm] from his [G] omnipresent
place, [Dm] you and [G] I are doomed [Dm] to an everlasting [G] case of [C] present face.
You shouldn't have present face, just what I wanted, [F] present face for all the times I
go fishing, [C] present face.
[C]
