lyrics

The First Christmas (Marceline and The Ice King)
Song A Day #1424

E A E
Smoke in the air, sludge on the ground
A man comes wandering through town
On his hip a golden crown
B7 C#m A
He has a desperate need and he's tightly wound

Blood in the water, smoke in the air
A young vampire is kneeling there
Tears on her cheeks she has short black hair
She's all alone and she's so scared

C#m B A
Christmas day in the apocalyptic waste land

The whole wide world has been recast
His beard it grows obscenely fast
Through the rubble so dark and vast
He sees the girl as he's wandering past

The moon has lost all it's pull
His brain is wired his brain is full
But he sees her tears and it touches his soul
He gives her a stuffed animal
