This was AWESOME! You sell your music for outside enjoyment, or is it - for now - only available on Sound Cloud?

I've always wanted to write a Christmas/Holiday song, so this year I did just that! However, this one is about having fun, while leaving out the not-so-fun parts, being kind and respectful to everyone, and maybe even learning a little about what the season is REALLY about. I dare you to listen. You might actually enjoy it! Happy whatever you celebrate!  :)

Verse 1
It’s the time of year for joy and cheer
All around this big, blue, precious sphere

But there’s so much more to consider
Hurry before father time makes you wither

I know you already know
There’s more to this than bows & snow  

But the fun parts of Christmas are much older than you think 
Watch the video, just click the link


Chorus
Keep the Merry, Dump the Myth
On December 25th
Learn how to end fights with hugs and handshakes  
Be good - just because, for goodness sake


Verse 2
On this day a man was born, who by age 30 would change the world (Ladies and Gentlemen - Sir Isaac Newton!)
Many will hear this, I hope it doesn’t cause their tempers to unfurl.

Were there 3, 4, 7, or 12 wise kings?
Some books really can’t answer these things

You may no longer believe in Santa Claus
When wisdom comes, the fairy tale thaws

Chorus 2
Keep the Merry, Dump the Myth
On December 25th
Learn how to end fights with hugs and handshakes
Be good - just because, for goodness sake

It’s Saturnalia, don your finest regalia
That also goes for Yule, Chanukah, and Kwanzaa
No need to remind My fellow heathens
The planet’s axis – the reason for the season 

Bridge
People have been celebrating solstice for ages
But you won’t read about that in your holy book’s Pages

Don’t let this stuff get you blue
It just comes from me, who believes in one less god than you

Chorus
Keep the Merry, Dump the Myth
On December 25th
Learn how to end fights with hugs and handshakes  
Be good - just because, for goodness sake

Keep the Merry, Dump the Myth 
It’s not about Mary and Joseph
Celebrate the year with family and friends
Get ready for the new - ladies and gentlemen

Closing Bridge
Don’t think of it as a burden
Enjoy it, be safe, and Have fun!

In time you’ll get to bathe in the sun
But for now, go out and play in the snow
Warm up with coco
Wrap it up with a bow
And kiss under mistletoe-ooo-oh!
