lyrics

Don't get me something that I'll never use
Or something you think I might need
Don't buy me a present that's really for two
Just get me something to read.

I don't need a spa day, a hamper of cheese
Or a ticket for Boro v Leeds
I don't need a new jumper I'm not going out
So I just want Something to read.

CHORUS
At Christmas time I hope you buy me something that I want to read.

Don't get me socks, don't buy me a tie
Don't get me a widescreen tv
If you're stuck for something you think you should buy
Just get me something to read

Repeat Chorus

Signed Richard Osmans
Poems by Lemn
The works of the venerable Bide
Fancy sprayed edges, rare editions and more
Just get me something to read

Repeat chorus

What are the presents your heart desires
New shoes or chocolates and sweets
Anything you'd really like to acquire
Or would you just like something to read?

Repeat Chorus x3
