Title:Christmas Is A Vulture (Live) (Beatnik Turtle Music/Elmer)
Related:Christmas, Recorded Live
Lyrics:
Spoken: This is a song about the real meaning of Christmas.
Well it's cold and dark this Christmas As the lonely people die upon the street And on the other side of town A fat investment banker starts to eat...meat And how can you afford to spend And buy and feed our greedy war machine? Children in another country far away They know just what I mean For they have seen... Christmas is disease Infecting every institution to its core A gift-wrapped, pus-filled pathogen That only but the wealthy can afford And how can you ignore the festering stench Of your decaying Christmas past?
As it twinkles and it jingles While sleigh-riding you and yours right up the ass? Right up the ass!
Christmas is a vulture Sucking life from all the weak and under-fed So celebrate your money And your capitalist systematic dread When Santa claws your anus out And tears your stinking eyeballs from your head You still don't understand now That the greeting of the season is drop dead Drop dead Drop dead!
Song Notes:
Today's song is a bit of a dark outlook on the silly season.
