What Is Christmas? lyrics |

[NARRATION] By this time a harder rocking stage Would be impossible to find And though no one was now drinking The owner did not seem to mind And the angel marveled how one man Could turn around a life And then that life turn around another's And how it rippled through this night But there was someone in that room Whose heart had not been changed A heart that had grown so hard You'd have thought it could never be arranged It was the businessman from downtown Who had stopped there to rest his feet And he clung to his drink (where he watched his thoughts sink) While any strangers, he refused to greet You could see upon his face How happiness had been so long deferred It was practically as if unhappiness Had somehow become preferred Now the angel had not seen the businessman Though they had in that room been near Nor did the angel see him as he left the bar When he could no longer stand this christmas cheer |
And as the businessman exited the door He heard someone complaining on the tv It was the "grinch" ranting against christmas And the man found that he agreed [WHAT IS CHRISTMAS?] What is christmas? Tinseled fairytales Day old stockings lined up in a row What is christmas Could someone tell me that? What is christmas? Surely, i don't know And everywhere these lights Who needs to color night? Could this whole thing be planned? I do not understand This christmas Trees with colored lights Underneath they still are only trees Do you think that one day perhaps they might Find that christmas Is kind of a disease? Every year it's waiting for me Waiting for me Every year it constantly defies Placing strangers |
There before me There before me Spreading hope and cheer Mixed in with happiness Fraternal bliss and other christmas lies! And there's one more thing that i have discovered And i would now like you to know The reason for christmas i now realize Is an excuse to tolerate snow Snow! I don't even like the sound of it Anyway, where was i Oh, yes! What is christmas? Candles everywhere A fire hazard any other day Children light them No one seems to care All for christmas Every year it returns here And every year it's waiting for me Why can't christmas disappear And just pretend it never saw me Every year i get my hopes up That it will somehow just leave But every year i wake to find That once again it now is christmas eve |
