Merry War on Christmas

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Another year out on the battle lines
Well, it must be another Christmas time
Raising Hell about a coffee cup
Because it’s just not Christmassy enough
So keep the Christ in the Christmas
Or you will lose my business
Have a merry war on Christmas
May all your weaponry burn bright
Have a merry war on Christmas
And always celebrate it right
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
As I walk the streets of my hometown
No baby Jesus manger to be found
People tell me “Happy Holidays!”
I look at them and think that they are crazed
Just tell me “Merry Christmas!”
Or you’ll be on my hit list
Have a merry war on Christmas
May all your weaponry burn bright
Have a merry war on Christmas
And always celebrate it right
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Oh, oh, oh
Have a merry war on Christmas
Have a merry war on Christmas
Have a merry war on Christmas
(He’s the reason for the season)
Have a merry war on Christmas
(He’s the reason for the season)
Have a merry war on Christmas
(He’s the reason for the season)
Have a merry war on Christmas
(He’s the reason for the season)

Well it’s that time of year again
Gathered ‘round family and friends
The temperature is falling
And carolers come calling
It looks like Christmas time again
The bells ring throughout the town
And the snow is falling down
Spreading thoughts of hope and joy
Throughout the land
Well there are others at this time
That you should keep at top of mind
So why don’t you reach out and lend
A helping hand
Buying gifts and making plans
Put up a tree and hope it stands
But there are other problems
And you can help to solve them
Because it’s Christmas time again
Let there be peace around the world
And joy to every boy and girl
Shine light upon the world
And make it bright
Well it may be a daunting task
And an awful lot to ask
So let’s make a miracle
This Christmas night
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Look it’s Christmas time again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Look it’s Christmas time again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Look it’s Christmas time again
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Look it’s Christmas time again
