The Lyrics
this is a brainwashed song, making everyone with a less than perfect home feel like they're missing out. The point of the song is some so-called, 'homes' are disaster sites that should NOT be visited in the name of sanity nor the persons who inhabit them, harsh as that sounds. Sobriety and Survival are bigger deals than that.
Lots of better places than home
for the holidays
Maybe best to stay far away and roam
If you usually have a hard time there
on holidays
Think twice before you call that place your ‘home.’
2)Sure everyone deserves a home but media
Have snuck schmaltz in where reality should be
Nobody’s home’s a picture perfect paradise
Check the Christmas misery site – you will agree
3) Grieve that home that never was (without self pity)
You survived now you can make one of your own
Find a friend and then a brand new way to celebrate
Mean something special now when you say ‘going home.’

When I parody a song it needs to have some meaning to me or it doesn't seem worth doing. With Christmas songs & carols I could go on forever. And I do. I do.
