The ten years sober lady at the Circle K Asked Sara where she got her Vintage Pearl Jam T-shirt She said it was my dad's He and my mom Got engaged at This concert She was already Pregnant with me And the were traveling The country in A '79 RV Got married in Bellingham And my dad gave up Being in a band My mom joined The Army To bring in More money The cashier said 'Life's funny that way What are you and you Family doing Christmas day?' Sara said, 'when I was a muffin It was just me and my dad He drove a Greyhound Bus from Portland to Vancouver' 'I got a scholarship to Private school Where the rich kids were Really cruel Called my dad A loser' 'When they made fun of My soldier mom Punched the girls In the face And knocked them down That Christmas my dad Bought me my first set of drums Said "you won't get suspended And they're a lot more fun" My dad would take out his guitar And he would play The very first song He taught me was Today is the greatest day' The Smashing Pumpkins Are as old as my father And Soundgarden Reminds me of my mother The Smashing Pumpkins Are as old as my father Soundgarden reminds me of my mother At night I turn the lights down dim Put my headphones and Listen to them Took my dad away But I get to see him Next Christmas day When I was nine My mother got shipped off To Iraq 'When I turned 11 My dad said "Baby polar bear She's never Coming back" My mother dying Took my dad to Dark places He's never been before He got hooked on Oxys Got arrested trying to score Took me and my sister away Into foster care But I wrote my dad every day Signed, always your baby polar bear The Smashing Pumpkins Remind me of my father And Soundgarden Remind me of my mother Me and my half-sister Turn our amps up loud And the lights down dim Play along to my dad's records Cause next Christmas we Get to see him He's been away For far too long The only way I got through Was listening to Smashing Pumpkin songs All the way through High school I barely held on Dropped out with a semester to go Moved out of Bellingham My dad said in a letter "Get your GED Pick yourself up Your mom's strength's inside you. Before long You'll see me" This is the last Christmas My sis and I will spend alone Because next summer my dad Finally gets out on parole And when I was 12 Planted an evergreen To cut down the Christmas He comes home The Smashing Pumpkins Remind me of my father And Soundgarden Reminds me of my mother Me and my half sister Turn our amps up loud And the lights down dim Play along to my dad's records Cause next Christmas We get to see him The Smashing Pumpkins Remind me of my father And Soundgarden Reminds me of my mother Me and my half sister Turn our amps up loud And the lights down dim Play along to my dad's records Cause next Christmas We get to see him
