Here comes Santa slidin' down the chimney
He won't find milk and cookies left inside
For our children have all died from indecision
And their parents have been blinded by their pride

There'll be no present 'neath the tree tomorrow
Dirt and dust and ash is all we'll find
'cause Santa Claus can't save us from each other
And Jesus Christ won't wash away our lies

Oh, I wish you all a very merry Christmas
Spread the joy this season claims to bring
But don't expect to hear a round of classic carols
Those too scared to speak refuse to sing

Fa la la la la

The Christmas Spirit

The good lord said to Noah, "Son, build yourself a boat.
"Take two of each of everything out there that doesn't float.
"For 40 days, I'll have my way with those who won't repent.
"I'll bury them with my regrets."

But Noah turned away; he said, "I don't work for you.
"I toil and sweat. I do the things that you've refused to do.
"So send the wind and send the rain; I'll die right where I stand.
"They'll bury me with my regrets."

"'cause in my hour of darkness, and in my time of need,
"I stared into the night and caught you looking back and me.
"And when the rain came down, you watched me drown, the water, cold and deep...
"Forever lost under the sea."

"So won't you bury me beneath this lifetime of regrets.
"Cut out my heart and give it to the lovers I have left.
"Give my lips to those I've kissed, gather all my friends,
"And bury me with my regrets."

Bury Me (Live at Ortlieb's, 01-24-2020)
