Present’s Lament Songtext
von Will Ferrell

Is it time
To find out if I′m
Meant for more than just a Christmas mornin' feelin′?
I could go back to Earth, retire, just peace out
Another chance at the life I've been dreamin' about

Maybe I′d buy a quaint little house on a quiet street
Meet a nice gal, we get married, and start a family
And then at the end of each day after work
We′d have a loving embrace and
One of those newfangled modern mouth kisses
That'd be nice

Is it time
To find out if I′m
Ready to reach beyond a Christmas mornin' feelin′?
To be human again, alive once more
Take some swings at the things I missed out on before


And there's me in the backyard
Goofing around with my two kids who share the same first initial
Little Rebecca and her brother Reggie or Robert or Rahhray
I don′t know, I'll think of a good "R" name

But what if I screw up my life again
Like I did the first time through?
Could I really be someone better
Someone kinder, someone new?

But no, no, no
I've gotta make more of a difference here
There′s so much left to do
With all the trolls and a-holes out there
Are the ripples I make too small?
A divided world so in need of repair
Well, am I doin′ it a world of good
And have i given it my all?
Or am I just full of it
Am I just full of sh--

Hey, come on now, potty mouth
