about

Inspired by "Baby, It's Cold Outside" and Green Acres, this song explores the age-old debate of whose family to spend Christmas with this year.

lyrics

Klausies, mīłā
Ziemassvētki atkal tuvojās
Zinu, dārgais
Pastā ir jau svētku kartińas
Svētku sniegā
Varam abi mīłi vārtīties
Apgaismotās
Ielās iesim rotas iepirkties

Bet atkal pienācis ir laiks
Kad mums ir jāatbild šis jautājums:
Kur mēs šogad svinēsim?

Laukos vai Rīgā
Senču lauk' mājā
Laukos vai Rīgā
Tēva penthausā
Laukos vai Rīgā
Kā lai šo izgudrojam
Lai šogad svētkus visi izbaudam?

Pēdējā gadā
Jūsu kaza dāvanas apēda
Bet tavā Rīgā
Liftā braucot egle pārlūza
Tavs onkulis Tālis
Svētku buču ilgi turēja
Un tavas māsas
Atkal visu vīnu izdzēra

Mēs gribam svētkos kopā būt
Bet ir grūti kad ir jāizlemj
Kur mēs šogad svinēsim?

Laukos vai Rīgā
Kūtī gulēsim?
Laukos vai Rīgā
Burzmā nosmaksim?
Laukos vai Rīgā
Kā lai šo izgudrojam
Lai šogad svētkus visi izbaudam?

(- Nu, ko dararm?
- Tu jau zini, ka svinēt ar tavu gimeni nav mana pirmā izvēle
- Jā. Un es? Laukos? Esmu ka izmesta no laivas! Un tad atkal prasu: ko daram?
- Kaut kas jādara...
- Zini, ir trešā izvēle...
- Vai tev prātā tas pats kas man?
- Man škiet ka jā!
- Sarunāts?
- Sarunāts!)

Tad varbūt šogad labāk svinēt
Mūsu mājā, tikai abi mēs
Bez dubłainiem zābakiem
Bez dārgajiem pīrāgiem
Bez trakajiem rad'niekiem
Bez lielajiem notikumiem

Mīlestībā, tu un es
Divatā pie eglītes
Tā mēs šogad svinēsim!
