Holiday cheer
Celebrations all around
Everyone buzzing
With a feeling and warmth

A first Christmas here
A first for a pup at work
A first, to be last

The year tough
Money tight
Penny pinching to survive

And now you still expect
Me to give a gift
When I barely afford food?
And for what
Because you say so?

Yeah theres holiday cheer
But the actual reason
You might have forgotten

So tell me again what were celebrating

Is it a thanks for being here,
Or the monetary gifts your looking for?
