everyone's buying
get up early
shop til you drop
best presents town can offer
credit card maxed
payment on the way
economy is poor right now
the merchants are aware
they open stores at midnight
and some still 4 am
in hopes of bringing spenders
with plastic in their wallet
the Christmas spirit long gone
gifts are piled up high
the table isn't set tonight
no time for groceries and certainly
no money in the bank
Christ was born on Christmas Day
so many years before
I hope my gifts are fitting now
to share this day of mourning
so friends, lets have cake
instead of breakfast food
