Christmas Interrupted ....

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again
With dreams and nostaligia aglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
knocks on your very door
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
when you happen upon your core.

A pair of shit-kicking boots and a lobbyist that shoots
Is the wish of the NRA now and then;
We would love to talk and live the walk,
but we ain't Charlton Heston!!!

And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Ev'rywhere you go;
There's a tree in the Americus Hotel, one in Philly as well,
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. Yet there rests the afterglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas;
Soon the bells will start,
And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.

And I can't argue with that last part.

But I can add my parting shot.

A Reality we're not ... but it beats the streets with every show:
