It's that time of year again, when the turkeys know they're next & the big man with the beard comes to town & the stories are told 'bout many years ago when Jesus, he was born inside a shed gather round for christmas time don't you love christmas time? yeah, we love christmas time & all over the world, little boys & little girls are waiting for their stockings to fill up & under the tree, that's where the presents will be on the morning of the 25th day gather round for christmas time don't you love christmas time? yeah, we love christmas time...

I'm as sombre as a colliery coat. These tunes are a hundred years old. I should be as joyful as a row of Christmas lights, but I'm too dumb not to think about you. On long drives I'll analyse the winters past, 'til occupied with other things I can't resolve, like how robins predict the paths of old trucks on trunk roads on the last shift (heading home) and navigate deftly from branch to branch. As I try to stay awake, glaciers shake and calve colossal sheets of ice. Give me a little three-part harmony on a street at dusk, that's busy and lit tastefully, and I will sing along. Angels are watching out on the roads, children are gathering snow. So put on your winter coat - it's time to go home. When we lost our feet on these frozen paths, it was so good just to hold each other up. There in the backlight, where the snow-filled clouds, dirty white, hold back the night. Out at the edge of Antarctica, parts fall away, then they don't fit back together.

O'er the mountains & the moors hear the angels calling "Christ the saviour ere is born" Here on Christmas morning Be ye peasant, kings or lords Come let thee adore him All yr sins shall be absolved Here on Christmas morning All ye faithless or unsure Kneel now before him Accept him as yr only God or spend yr Christmas mourning Feel it in my bones Feeling all alone Feeling something's wrong but I know its Christmas Call you on the phone Message at the tone I know you ain't at home but I need to fix this mess £240 in my clip But it don't mean shit Motherfucking bitch I'm alone this Christmas Feel the silences Echo through my crib I don't feel rich I guess this is kismet I guess this is kismet time Feel like Lazarus I just can't get the rest Wanna lie down in the dust Taking care of business Frogs & blood & locusts & I'm losing all my focus All alone Christmas time w/ all the strangers Fill the streets & see the manger God & glory be our saviour Hear the angels sing Wish it could be a Merry Christmas but it's just a sad Christmas day Yes it could be Merry Christmas If only I could kneel & pray Boys don't cry I thought I heard a voice Calling out to me Bliss was it in this Dawn to be alive Jesus took my hand I know Though I left the world I loved I found a new place to reside above & Jesus took my hand & led me by his side O' ye mighty hand Lift up thine pearly gates I'm here to see the world I'm told, here awaits My authentic self Bathed in sin Thrown into a world Indifferent & truth itself is Concealing So I'll never see beyond These worldly things All I'm left with Is choice So I'll try in vain to be a 'Good boy' & try & try again to Enjoy Time chained to this life GOD IS DEAD GOD IS DEAD MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND GOD IS DEAD GOD IS DEAD MERRY CHRISTMAS Near at hand Is God but difficult to grasp like his Swift sword Barely time to gasp 'Thank you, Lord' Before he up and fucking died
