We fed ourselves on New Year's well Gifts were exchanged over the song The First Noel The evening before Christmas drinks were had Many fooling themselves that they are glad Throughout the cheer, men, women, and children in Yemen forgotten Leftover turkeys and roasts would be hurriedly eaten even if found rotten Starvation has Yemeni bodies eating themselves Have you seen photos of their emaciated figures on newspapers' shelves Pregnant women and newborn babies with dead husbands and dead fathers How do they care for themselves when in the grand scheme of things no one bothers Saudi military should go **** on themselves Murderous cowards that they are playing with Santa's elves Women in Yemen being ***** and domestic violence bring me to tears Would they get away with their satanic work if the U.S. wasn't kissing their filthy rears Seriously dangerous diseases running rampant Yemenis beautiful skin no longer so lambent So few of us care enough to choke up for our Ahmeds and for our Imans I ask infuriatingly will it take a whole country's destruction to rise for Yemen's Marwans

Yemen I ponder
We fed ourselves on New Year's well Gifts were exchanged over the song The First Noel The evening before Christmas drinks were had Many fooling themselves that they are glad Throughout the cheer, men, women, and children in Yemen forgotten Leftover turkeys and roasts would be hurriedly eaten even if found rotten Starvation has Yemeni bodies eating themselves Have you seen photos of their emaciated figures on newspapers' shelves Pregnant women and newborn babies with dead husbands and dead fathers How do they care for themselves when in the grand scheme of things no one bothers Saudi military should go **** on themselves Murderous cowards that they are playing with Santa's elves Women in Yemen being ***** and domestic violence bring me to tears Would they get away with their satanic work if the U.S. wasn't kissing their filthy rears Seriously dangerous diseases running rampant Yemenis beautiful skin no longer so lambent So few of us care enough to choke up for our Ahmeds and for our Imans I ask infuriatingly will it take a whole country's destruction to rise for Yemen's Marwans
