Our ordinary, brilliant Christmas. One tune as a personalised song christmas gift.

Verse 1

Two parents, three kids and a house full of noiseGrandma's up the stairs with her Christmas playlist voiceWe said no presents this year, over a tenner's the ruleSo here's a song instead, cheaper and truer

Verse 2

Dad's basting that gravy like it's a national testGuarding the pan like it's the only one he'll ever make best"Just needs one more stir" he says, every single yearWe nod and we let him, we let him, my dear

Chorus

This is us, the ordinary, brilliant kindSherry measures from Grandma that'll blow your mindMonopoly's banned again before it can start a warThat's the Hartleys, that's Christmas, that's what we're for

Verse 3

Boxing Day walk, nobody wants to goBoots by the door, moaning out in the coldBut we always end up laughing halfway round the greenBest part of the whole day, best thing we've seen

Chorus

This is us, the ordinary, brilliant kindSherry measures from Grandma that'll blow your mindMonopoly's banned again before it can start a warThat's the Hartleys, that's Christmas, that's what we're for

Bridge

No fortunes wrapped in paper, no bows on topJust Grandma's laugh and Dad's proud gravy potJust cold hands warming after that same old walkJust us, all together, that's worth more than gold

Chorus

This is us, the ordinary, brilliant kindSherry measures from Grandma that'll blow your mindMonopoly's banned again before it can start a warThat's the Hartleys, that's Christmas, that's what we're for

Outro

So here's to the Hartleys, whatever this year bringsGrandma's sherry, Dad's gravy, all our ordinary thingsNo tenner could buy this, no bow could tie it rightMerry Christmas, Hartleys, sleep tight
