JETHRO TULL - Christmas Song lyrics

rate me

Once in royal david's city stood a lonely cattle shed,<br>Where a mother held her baby.<br>You'd do well to remember the things he later said.<br>When you're stuffing yourselves at the christmas parties,<br>You'll just laugh when I tell you to take a running jump.<br>You're missing the point I'm sure does not need making<br>That christmas spirit is not what you drink.<br><br>So how can you laugh when your own mother's hungry,<br>And how can you smile when the reasons for smiling are wrong? <br>And if I just messed up your thoughtless pleasures,<br>Remember, if you wish, this is just a christmas song.<br><br>(hey! santa! pass us that bottle, will you? )
