 G               D            G                D
I'm a Christmas Unicorn, in a uniform made of gold
        G                       D
With a billy-goat beard, and a sorcerer's shield,
     Em              A
and mistletoe on my nose

Oh, I’m a Christian holiday
I’m a symbol of original sin
I’ve a pagan tree and magical wreath
And a bowtie on my chin

Oh, I’m a pagan heresy
I’m a tragic-al Catholic shrine
I’m a little bit shy with a lazy eye
And a penchant for sublime

Oh, I’m a mystical apostasy
I’m a horse with a fantasy twist
Though I play all night with my magical kite
People say I don’t exist

For I make no full apology
For the category I reside
I’m a mythical mess with a treasury chest
I’m a construct of your mind
Oh, I’m hysterically American
I’ve a credit card on my wrist
And I have no home nor field to roam
I will curse you with my kiss

Oh, I’m a criminal pathology
With a history of medical care
I’m frantic shopper and a brave pill popper
And they say my kind are rare

But I’ve seen others in the uniform
Of a unicorn just like me
We are legions wide and we choose no sides
We are masters of mystique

For you’re a Christmas unicorn
I have seen you on the beat
You may dress in the human uniform, child
But I know you’re just like me

I’m the Christmas Unicorn
You’re the Christmas Unicorn too - x2

I’m the Christmas Unicorn
(Find the Christmas Unicorn)
You’re the Christmas Unicorn too
(It’s all right, I love you)

I’m the Christmas Unicorn
(I’m the Christmas Unicorn)
(Find the Christmas Unicorn)
You’re the Christmas Unicorn too
(You’re the Christmas Unicorn too)
(It’s all right, I love you) - x3

I’m the Christmas Unicorn
(I’m the Christmas Unicorn)
(Find the Christmas Unicorn) (apart, my friend)
You’re the Christmas Unicorn too
(You’re the Christmas Unicorn too)
(It’s all right, I love you) - x2

Love, love will tear us apart, again
Love, love will tear us apart, my friend - x4

I’m the Christmas Unicorn
(Find the Christmas Unicorn)
(Love, love will tear us apart, again)
You’re the Christmas Unicorn
(It’s all right, I love you)
(Love, love will tear us apart, my friend) - x8
