Lights are twinkling, My eyes are blinking, Bulbous deer are shaking. Across the street Bloated Santa Claus Rocks to the season's flaws. It's Christless time again.
The trees are hewn, Stores are spewing Free wrapping, Ribbons and bows. Wreaths are hung, Good tiding flung, Frosty's song is sung. It's Christless time again.
We've planted seed That feeds the greed In the old and young. We know the songs That should be sung To vanquish mammon. But it's Christless time again.
Still, on that Eve Gift reprieve With a silent, Holy Night. Hear the bells From distant years, Before the yule log light. It's Christmas time again.
Borrowed "Christless Time" phrase from the title of a poem a brother wrote in high school. Liked it then. Still like it now.
