about
With this melodic gem, The Mockers deliver a three minute powerpop sermon on the true meaning of Christmas.
lyrics
They started up with that stuff again,
I saw them on TV,
Bill and Ann and Rush and Glen,
And all their coterie.
They said that there's a battle raging,
All across the land,
And called their armies into war
But I don't understand.
‘Cause what they've all be saying,
It isn't very smart.
'Cause there's no war on Christmas,
When Christmas is in your heart.
It doesn't really matter
If you use an X or C.
I doubt that Jesus would have cared.
They both spell love to me.
So you can wish me Merry Christmas
Or Happy Holidays.
You're only saying Peace On Earth
In many different ways.
So don't let all those Grinches
Pull us all apart.
'Cause there's no war on Christmas
When Christmas is in your heart.
So don't let all those Scrooges
Pull us all apart.
'Cause there's no war on Christmas
If Christmas is in your...
If we just loved each other,
That would be a start.
'Cause there's no war on Christmas,
No, there's no war on Christmas.
I can't believe they missed this:
That Christmas is in your,
Christmas is in your,
Christmas is in your heart.
There'll be no war on Christmas this year...
(That would be nice...)
(In your heart...)
