Christmas time, full of enlivened cheer
Fridges full of ham, turkey and ice cold beer.
Decorated with tinsel the tree and walls,
Even up the blinkin’ hall.
After the pressies, all unwrapped
Paper and ribbon, scattered, all for scrap.
The clothes don't fit, come shopping day, return.
Toys broken and fractured are ready to burn.
Kids bellies full of lollies and cake
Hubby drunk on the floor I reckon he's flaked.
All the money that was spent
In twenty four hours wonder where it went.
Leftovers eaten on Christmas night
All this extra food, it can't be right
Got to eat it before its rotten
Starving children, much forgotten.
“Wonder what its worth" I say
“To cancel this overrated Xmas Day?"
