[Verse 1: Amerigo Gazaway] It was the night before Christmas, just me and my spouse Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse We got our sweatpants on, we ain't leavin' the house And you gon' have to pay me homie, I'm not leavin' this couch Baby it's cold outside, we just sittin' by the fire While the little duns is playing in the snow outside Don't wann go outside, we just binging 'Love is Blind' And old 'Star Trek' reruns that we've watched a dozen times I'm just trying to cozy up, not interested in staying up til 4AM drunk poppin' bottles in the club I might have an old-fashioned or an egg nog with some rum I might even try to get a VR headset just for fun But if you think I'm 'bout to leave the house you must be cray I'm staying home for Christmas, I don't care what they say So feel free to drop by, if you wanna pay a visit Heard some knockin' at the door, pause the Netflix, yo who is it? But when I got to the porch, there was nobody there Just some presents from the elves that they left by the stairs And yo I wish you were here, but it's my Christmas Staycation I'm not going anywhere so fire up the Playstation [Hook: Amerigo Gazaway] 'Cause this year, all I want for Christmas Is to stay at home, no offense, don't get it twisted I wish that, we didn't live so far away But we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday 'Cause this year, all I want for Christmas Is to stay at home and just eat up all the Triscuits I wish that, we didn't have to go back to work Cancel all of my appointments until January 1st [Verse 2: Dillon] It's 'bout to be a silent night, that's right I'm catching up on my zzz's, I ain't catching a flight Despite all the season's greetings and the holiday cheer I'm home in my robe reading, trying to call it a year Pourin' a shot and beer, I steer clear fo the eggnog I ain't roasting chestnuts, just this hog leg dawg I got enough memories, ain't trying to make more Unless your coming to upgrade my Playstation 4 There's no family feast, I'm trying to eat some Chinese And stare at the TV screen until my eyes bleed In the past I bent over backwards to be a presence And didn't even leave with any presents I guess this year I'll sit here on the couch with my pajamas on And open all the boxes that I got myself on Amazon Christmas used to be the ish, but now I'm not a young buck And I gotta say is 'bah humbug' Hook: Amerigo Gazaway] 'Cause this year, all I want for Christmas Is to stay at home and just mind my own business Don't get it misconstrued, I don't mean to be a Scrooge I just wanna raid the fridge and eat up all the food 'Cause this year, only thing on my wishlist Is to stay at home, yeah that's all I want for Christmas I wish that, we didn't have to go back to work Cancel all of my appointments until January 1st [Verse 3: Amerigo Gazaway] I'm just chillin' at he crib, no really it's a vibe I wish we could stay at home like this for Christmas all the time 'Cause then I wouldn't have to drive, or get on a plane And you know traveling around this time of year is insane Crowded airports and stores, but no luggage to pack Almost done, just got a couple more presents to wrap But then I'm hittin' the sack, 9PM on Christmas Eve Left some cookies and some milk, out there sittin' by the tree Just in case he decides, to come and pay a visit Heard some rustling in the living room, wake up and say 'who is it?' Then I opened up the door, and guess who I saw? He said they call me St. Nick but just address me as 'Claus' And please forget what you saw, 'cause I was never here Grabbed the milk and cookies, and up the chimney he disappeared And I wish we were there, but it's my Christmas Staycation Watching all the classics, even the ones in claymation [Hook: Amerigo Gazaway] 'Cause this year, all I want for Christmas Is to stay at home, no offense, don't get it twisted I wish that, we didn't live so far away But we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday 'Cause this year, all I want for Christmas Is to stay at home and just eat up all the Triscuits I wish that, we didn't have to go back to work Cancel all of my appointments until January 1st

about

Listen to "Christmas Staycation (feat. Dillon)" the first single from Amerigo Gazaway's upcoming holiday-themed rap project, "Another Christmas Album." Following the success of his 2018 instrumental Christmas beat tape, "A Christmas Album," this time Gazaway takes a bold leap by stepping up to the mic and collaborating with a stellar lineup of emcees.

"Christmas Staycation is all about embracing the joy of kicking back during the holidays – trading family gatherings for Netflix marathons, video games, and cozy moments in sweatpants. It’s a humorous take on celebrating the season in the comfort of your own home." - Amerigo Gazaway

Gazaway and Dillon's clever lyrics capture the essence of a modern holiday experience, where the allure of long Netflix binges, marathon video game sessions, and lounging in sweatpants with a cup of hot cocoa takes precedence over the usual festive hustle and bustle.

Full album drops 12/1/23. Pre-order the vinyl/CD/cassette here:
