What Kevin Got For Christmas

by The Grief Brothers

supported by

dunkie This is absolutely superb. I loved the music the Brothers Grief for some time.. this is a little departure in sound and production, but in no way a move down the wrong chimney.
This is honestly iup there with THE best song writing of Tilbrook and Difford. Making a bouncy tune with a melody and lyrics centered around the mundane of an Office Christmas party has NEVER sounded so inviting.
This is a Christmas gift that needs to be played with every single day of the year. I'm in awe of this track.

What Kevin Got For Christmas

It’s the Tuesday after Christmas but the coming New Year’s yet to start
The gossip in the office is quite spikey with it’s hooks and barbs
No one has been meaner than the doorman and cleaner (who saw all the mess)
With her cheeks all well aflame, Debbie does the walk of shame (in her minidress)

When he found them both together, his whole world fell apart
All that Kevin got for Christmas was a black eye and a broken heart.

Kev watched Debbie dance with Gary, felt the dagger swagger through his heart
When she kissed him in the kitchen by the Ouzo and the Advocaat
If Debbie had her way it would be Christmas every day and Kev would see the door
To the accountant’s great alarm, Kev took Debbie by the arm (and then he hit the floor).

When he found them both together, his whole world fell apart
All that Kevin got for Christmas was a black eye and a broken heart.

All the office parties, they all turn out the same
All the photocopied arses, all the half-remembered shame
Every banging headache, all the ill-considered booze
All the retching, all the fluids, every drunken workplace truth.

When he found them both together, his whole world fell apart
All that Kevin got for Christmas was a black eye and a broken heart.
