Christmas Song #3921

about

Christmas is all about consumption, and this is Team Sawrites take on it!

lyrics

We wish you a very merry
very very merry-

financial burden
just like everything else with your children
screech and screech and you spend and you spend
long story short
we hate them

stupid toys and call of duty
all hail corporate Christmas beauty
obey all the ads without pause and
celebrate the birth of Santy Claus

forced interactions
family fun (trademark)
supporting transactions
Christmas hath begun (Christmas hath begun)

Gary don't mind me,
I was just eavesdropping
Here's an unwanted comment
I'm unhappy with the content
of your trolly, it's lacking Christmas shopping
I think you should- FUCK OFF

unrealistic expectations of having nothing but joy and fun
artificial kindness, bullshit fakery impressive lies
same shit, as the book and story this whole fucking thing is spun
but hey,
it's a holiday,
so I guess its fucking fine then

breaking relations, hanging decorations
more manufactured snow on that shelf!
to be honest, I'd much rather
hang my cheery fucking self

Oh, how the tears, they would flow
should you lack the dough
that perfect gift
wasn't part of Saint Nicks cargo

let's hear you [HO HO HO]
without the perfect gift to bestow
if you didn't plan 6 months ago
you might as well set fire to snow

forced interlude
family feud (seriously that one's trademarked)
crippling debt
can Christmas just be done (JUST BE DONE)

I'm running out of money to spend
STOP GIVING IT AWAY THEN
But I still gotta buy the Christmas crackers
You're just trying to make me madder
Less than perfect turkey
Dehydrated garbage chicken
What are your plans for new year?

don't forget to smile and show off your festive cheer
while an unemployed obese man and his pet reindeer
defy the laws of physics to travel round this fucking sphere
the fundamental force of this song may show my fucking cheer

let me use these Christmas-y notes
to shove my religion down your throat
fancy feast, my wealth it denotes
as do all my anecdotes

I'll use this time of
giving and selflessness
just to prove
I'm better than all of you

Christmas is good
Christmas is fun
Christmas is all of the things that we love

Everyone is happy
Everyone is fine
Everyone is having an adequate time

How much fun are you having?
I'm having a tonne!
Listening to Christmas song 3921

We're in a position where we can't not do Christmas.
It's for the kids, they say. No, it's for the business.
All the kids are watching the films,
Telling them what to expect.
A hundred gifts, from Father-Christmas
Made by all the elves?
That means it's limitless, that means it's infinite,
all of gifts that they can get.
That means that it's inevitable, that they can get whatever they want.

elves on the night shift,
So children can get nice gifts,
Candy bars, glamorous dolls,
Santy Claus, he has them all!

And don't worry about the money of the matter boys and girls
Santa will be in the factory making the toys for the world
Anything, that you wish, put it on a list, and you'll
get it, depending on your parent's financial position

People these days think that happiness comes from valuables
show off the stuff you have, grow your social status
That's what you're taught, by the films and the ads and the songs
People need to see that they had it all wrong

(Here's a thought)
Kid's don't need stuff
It's important your kids know that they're supported
fuck the stuff, show them kindness and love

With intrinsic values, you can begin your path to happiness.
Extrinsic goals will end in woes. Woah.

Distress, regrets, anxiety, and depression.
These feeling's prominence has got me asking questions
Why are people feeling them, and why is nothing healing them?
These are just the symptoms of the bigger issue.

Kids don't give a shit about your Christmas dinner,
sitting with their family,
They want what they see in the ads on TV

Humans are manipulatable
And it's almost as if the billion-dollar businesses know this,
So they focus

On making us think
that we need their product
They offer answers to the problems
they invented for profit

Because you could be too ugly, you could be too fat
Too smelly, too boring, too old, too this too that
The people at the top are exploiting,
All y'all at the bottom for your money

I bet your wallet has still not recovered from Black-Friday.
twenty eighteen, it started a week early

Now you get a whole week, to buy the shit you don't need.
"But Kaelin you don't get it, it's 30% off"
What you forget is that you didn't want it, until you saw it and if you hadn't seen it, you wouldn't be paying the 70%, okay,

This song has went on a lot longer than I thought it would,
I guess I had a lot that I wanted to get across to you.
It truly is a shame, that you won't do anything, about what I say,
Life will go on as normal,
You'll drive to McDonald's tomorrow
Get your kid a happy-meal

That's it, get your kid addicted to the shit that will kill them
It will kill them
But you can't blame yourself, don't hate yourself.
You're just another victim of the system

Put in place by the same corporations who have raised us since birth
It's detrimental to our mental and physical health but it benefits them, and that's all we're worth.

Christmas is good
Christmas is fun
Christmas is all of the things that we love

Everyone is happy
Everyone is fine
Everyone is having an adequate time

How much fun are you having?
I'm having a tonne!
Listening to Christmas song 3921

We wish you a very merry
very very merry merry merry Christmas
