Days getting short, Nights even colder 
Another year down, another year older
Now Santa Claus that has captured your kids
Brace yourself for the media blitz

Merry Christmas,  happy new year,  happy hannuka too
Be you Christian, agnostic, muslim or jew
I want to say, Happy holiday

Can’t go to the mall, I’m afraid of stampedes
Besides I know,  the best gifts are free
working hard to please the names on my list
But my stocks took a plunge so this song is your gift

Merry Christmas, happy new year, happy kwanzaa too
Be you Mormon, Australian, or a Hindu
I want to say, Happy Holiday

Bridge:  Bill O’Reilly is going bezerk, 
about the war on Christmas by the liberal jerks
Taking Christ out of our Christmas beliefs
But would Jesus go shopping in an SUV?

Maybe they’re right, let’s get back to the roots
Before Santa Claus and Macy’s got in cahoots
Christmas traditions were started by pagans
Long before its exploitation

Merry Christmas, happy solstice, saturnalia too
Be you druid, pantheist, or something new 
Is want to say, happy holiday?
Is it safe to say, happy holiday?
