Synopsis
Starting off with an instrumental of "Carol of the Bells", the video begins with a series of clips showing Boxman's holiday misfortune. First, he is show quietly sitting in a living room next to a Christmas tree, writing "To: Boxman / From: Santa" on a wrapped present and leaving it under the tree. Next, Boxman sets up a stepladder outside his house to hang up some Christmas lights on his roof, but falls. Finally, he tries to hold a mistletoe over him and an unidentified woman, who slaps him. This prompts Boxman to start rapping; during the first verse, he curses the holiday of Christmas and raps about how much the holidays suck as a box. He wants to escape and decides that the mountains would be a good retreat, getting into his car and driving off.



Through rap, Boxman explains that his family visited the previous year and gifted him presents that only aimed to tease him, including a lighter from his brother with a note that read " KILL YOURSELF ♡ Your Brother ツ". Incidents like that are why Boxman tends to spend Christmas alone (at one point even knocking over someone dressed as Santa's elf).

Boxman eventually arrives at a snowy mountain cabin resort, where he proceeds to dance and play in the snow, at one point even urinating his name into the snow. He eventually encounters other people, including a girl that he throws a snowball at. The snowball strikes the girl in the back of the head, temporarily knocking her out. Her boyfriend, brandishing a baseball bat, approaches Boxman and demands to know why he hit his girlfriend, threatening to attack him. Boxman explains that he was just trying to have fun and, seeing the bat, pulls out a gun. The girl, who has woken up, runs over and puts herself between the two guys, telling them that there is no need to fight and offers herself to both guys to calm them down. Both the guy and Boxman seem happy with the deal, and the girl instructs Boxman to hurry into their car.

At that moment, Boxman makes note of the fact that both the guy and girl are wearing shirts reading "I HATE BOXES". He starts backing away as the couple starts hostilely approaching him, brandishing boxcutters. The guy reveals that their parents were killed in a box factory, and they aim to "remove [Boxman] from history" to avenge them. Boxman distracts them by claiming to see Bruce Lee and uses the time to escape to his car, pulling the stick-shift and driving away as the box-hating couple chase after him.



Boxman races home and steps out of his car and raps about how he now sees life with a "different view", admitting that his family will, at least, not try to kill him. As "Carol of the Bells" returns, Boxman runs to his family, who all step outside to greet him. They all embrace, but Boxman's brother gives the camera a threatening look at he turns on a lighter behind Boxman's back.

Lyrics
Hyphens (-) indicate words censored by subduing the audio.

Boxman:

All I hear about is Christmas spirit

F--- that sh--, man, I don't wanna hear it

Christmas as a box sucks and I fear it

Not this time; I'm not gonna be near it

I need to find a way to get away from it all

The mountains would probably be a good call

Only snow and trees is what I recall

''I need to get there fast. Oh sh--, there's a wall''

I'll tell you why I hate this time of the year

Last Christmas my family came to spread cheer

They gave me a bunch of gifts that teased me

None of the presents were aimed to please me

So that's why Christmas is spent by myself

''No more Santa and his f---ing elf

''But now I've reached my destination

And I can have fun without hesitation

Chorus (by Ian):

Boxman

Boxman's Christmas

It's the Boxman Christmas

Boxman Christmas

Boxman Christmas

Guy:

Hey man, why'd you hit my girlfriend for?

Want me to flatten you, use you as a floor?

Boxman:

No, no, no, I was just trying to have fun

''Oh, you have a bat? Well, I have a gun!''

Girl:

Calm down guys, no need to fight

I can give ya'll some --- tonight

Guy:

That sounds pretty good, my hoe is right

Boxman:

Yeah that's a great way to settle this plight

Girl:

Just hurry up and get into our ride

There is even some free candy inside

Boxman:

Hey now, what are those shirts you're wearing?

And what are those box cutters you're bearing?

Guy:

It was your kind that changed our life, you see

Our family was killed in a box factory

Now we'll remove you from history

Boxman:

Look over there, I think I see Bruce Lee

Now you see the kind of crap I go through

But now I look at life with a different view

My faith in my family's been rebuilt

At least they won't try to get me killed

Trivia

Goofs

 * Both the subtitles and the lyrics (the latter in the video's full description) misspell "was" in the line "Our family was killed in a box factory" as "we".
