so this is Christmas and what have we done war is still blazing while we burn in the Sun glaciers are melting our coasts disappear it's 70 in December and we're full of good cheer our country is wasting away at the core the doctrines set forth don't exist anymore we ignore mass genocide in poor countries but leap to right all the wrongs where there's oil to reap when the rich do their drugs we're so sad for their disease when the poor do the same they are lowlifes and thieves with all our technology, our knowledge, our toys millions still starve deck the halls girls and boys and while oppression occurs every minute, every day we idly stand by, disregard, look away we turn on our TV's and bask in it's light Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night
