What the hell is up with some of these Christmas lyrics? I swear, they're just thrown together, some of 'em.

So, friends, follow along with me as I break down... asinine Christmas lyrics!

First up is "Last Christmas" by Wham! Okay, now, to start with... who names a band Wham!? Just terrible.



Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

All right, let's break this down. Last year, this guy gave his heart to someone. He HAD to have presumed that last year's person was special, else he wouldn't have given his heart to them. But don't take my word for it, just witness these other lyrics as proof:

I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you"
I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again

A love letter. He meant it, too! But here's the kicker: he admits that he could be fooled again.

But then, this:

Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again

Which is it, George? Will you, or will you not ever be fooled again? You quite clearly can't even follow your own reasoning, Mr. Organ Donor! Stop giving your heart away until you figure things out!

And so that leads me back to the most fantastically bizarre premise in the song:

This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

You have admitted IN THE SAME SONG that you gave your heart to someone you thought was special LAST YEAR. How can you be sure of the speciality of THIS year's cardio-recipient?

Stick to masterpieces like "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go", George.
