Hot off the heels with his early autumn “Not My Monkeys” EP release, New Jersey recording artist BB Stevens rounds out the year with a song full of love and holiday cheer called “Christmas All Year”. Full lyrical innuendo and double entendres, as well as unexpected melodic twists and turns set against a fun Phil Spector-like wall-of-sound production, the track promises to become a future Christmas classic.
While I rarely include a complete set of lyrics in my review I believe this sweet chestnut deserves that seldom served honor.
Christmas All Year
When people ask
Why each day can’t be Christmas?
I don’t pay those people much mind
Because it’s occurred to me
Since the day I met you
Every day’s felt like Christmas time
The twinkle of your eye
Brightest star in my sky
The smile on your face brings cheer
Santa came to town
The day you came ‘round
Now it’s Christmas each day of the year
If I feel sorry
You make me feel jolly
Just by being near
To heck with holly
You get me higher than Molly
You make it Christmas time all of the year
When people ask
Why each day can’t be Christmas?
I don’t pay those people much mind
But I knew for sure
When you walked through the door
Every day’s gonna be Christmas time
Today’s a cold winter’s day
But the warmth of your gaze
Set my Yule log ablaze
The love that you send me
Sends sparks up my chimney
The way you bring Christmas all year
The world’s often violent
Nights far from silent
Shattered by hatred and fear
But the touch of your hand
Could bring peace to all man
And bring Christmas each day of the year
When people ask
Why each day can’t be Christmas?
I don’t pay those people much mind
If they had what you give me
They too would agree
You make each day Christmas time
You’re the perfect present
Oh my God, when unwrapped
What’s revealed steals my next breath of air
When you’re entirely undressed
I’m undeniably blessed
Your sugarplums, a vision so fair!
The kiss from your lips
Needs no assist
Of that mistletoe
You deck all my halls
Jingle and jiggle my bal… bells!
You deck all my halls
Jingle and jiggle my bells
You make it Christmas all of the time
And here I’ll admit
That the 12 days of Christmas
Now won’t be enough for me
You just have a way of
Making holidays of
Every single second of the year
When people ask
Why each day can’t be Christmas?
I don’t pay those people much mind
Because it’s occurred to me
Since the day I met you
Every day’s felt like Christmas time
