You're not the only one
Who wants to live in a time
When Christmas trees are bare
And we hear the Christmas song
But who wants to live in a time
When Christmas trees are cut down to ashes
And all our children starve
If we'd only buy those Christmas trees
Who wants to live in a time
When Christmas trees are bare
And we hear the Christmas song
But who wants to live in a time
When Christmas trees are cut down to ashes
And all of our children starve
If we'd only buy those Christmas trees
Now it's Christmas and it's how I spend it
And Christmas is the only time I see my son
Where the fires are lit at ten o'clock
But Christmas trees are cut and all of them
Have burned out.
